Frank Rogers on the Spiritual Side to Healing Trauma

“This is an amazing book that I couldn’t put down once I started it.” —Richard Schwartz, PhD, developer of the Internal Family Systems model

Spiritual director and professor Frank Rogers was, as a young adult, tormented by trauma. Wracked by depression, he was on the cliff edge of suicide. From intense despair, he set off on a quest—for answers, for sanity, for a credible God to see him through. Cradled in the Arms of Compassion is at once a narrative of psychological transformation and a spiritual autobiography that details the survivor’s journey. Rogers shows how he found recovery through a combination of reflective retreats, therapy, creative expression, and an extraordinary application of imaginative meditation, which spiritual seekers and practitioners will find utterly fascinating.

One of the few male accounts of childhood sexual abuse and fewer still that charts a spiritual course for the transformation of trauma.
