Reseña del libro "Improving the Quality of Life for Veterans with PTSD: The Healing Therapy Way! (en Inglés)"
Improving the Quality of Life for Veterans with PTSD: The Healing Therapy Way! Is a self-help guide for veterans (and others) suffering from Posttraumatic Stress Disorder. The book is dedicated to Marine LCpl Janos Lutz who suffered from PTSD and who subsequently took his own life at age 24 after deployments in Afghanistan and Iraq. The aim of the book is to save the lives of our soldiers by introducing various treatment options including art therapy. We wish to thank LCpl Lutz's mother, Janine Lutz, for bringing this important topic to the fore despite her own grief over losing her only son to this dreaded disease called PTSD. The book is grounded in several theories related to PTSD and it acknowledges the federal government's legislative interventions by three past and present presidents: Obama, Trump, and Biden. The book explains the causes, signs, and symptoms of PTSD so that one can recognize it from the onset and seek treatment, whether medical or non-medical. Some of the proposed therapies are Adult Coloring Therapy, Glass-Blowing, Therapeutic Healing Gardens, Pet Therapy, Healing Circles, and Resilience Through Art. It should be noted that Online therapies are available as well as Compensated Work Therapy to aid in Post-deployment Social Interactions. This book is dedicated in the honor of firefighter, Stephen Gerard Siller, who gave up his life in the Twin Towers in the 9/11 attacks. The proceeds, 50% thereof, will be donated to the Tunnel to Towers Foundation, a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, honoring America's Fallen First Responders, Veterans, and their Families for over 20 years. Endorsements: From a first responder and military family for over one hundred years, "Improving the Quality of Life for Veterans with PTSD" is a well-written and thoughtful read. All I can say, speaking for my family of Army, Marines, Firefighters, Police Officers, and Medical Specialists is: "A BIG THANK YOU!" Richard Rotanz, PhD, Rotanz and Associates "Improving the Quality of Life for Veterans with PTSD: The Healing Therapy Way!" by Dr. Indiana Robinson and Dr. Robert L. Wolf, just begins to scratch the surface of a misunderstood injury and is an excellent start to what's needed. Continued Post Traumatic Stress (PTS) research is required to help guide clinicians away from a one size fits all approach! Shawn A. Disbennett, Master Gunnery Sergeant, USMC (Ret)
