Shelly has authored two books on PTSD, both which are rooted in her personal experienced with trauma. She was assaulted by a serial rapist at the age of 19, and like many people, has a trauma history marked by multiple events. Shelly’s interest in PTSD developed when several family members and a close friend had significant struggles with post-traumatic stress disorder. She accompanied her friend to trauma treatment and began researching the topic. Shelly has also undergone trauma therapy and understands PTSD from the vantage point of one who has experienced it.
