DESCRIPTION:
Speak But the Word is a compelling, informative and inspiring read both for the lay reader, and for the clinician seeking to gain further insight, understanding and mastery regarding the phenomenology and treatment of dissociative disorders-along with a sense of wonder as to how deeply significant and productive a life healed from trauma can become.. The result is a text that includes numerous full-color paintings and photographs by the author which provide a stunning visual dimension to the healing narrative of the book. In the fullness of time, this remarkable achievement resulted in the emergence of a singular, unified person, Leilani Claire, who, as a culminating gift and legacy, went on to write a record of her "post-final-integration" life as a unified, non-clinically dissociating person-an "integrated multiple." Over ten years of painstaking, preparatory work have gone into publication of Speak But the Word. Speak But the Word From Multiple Personalities to Wholeness is the heroic, autobiographical account of the healing odyssey of twenty-five personalities, all living within one body, and the journey they followed towards integration-towards wholeness
