MARIETTA, GA - In a world where trauma often remains a silent, private battle, a powerful new book pulls back the curtain on the stark reality of survival. Author’s Tranquility Press proudly announces the release of Surviving Trauma by Janice Gomes, a gripping and deeply compassionate work that threads together harrowing true narratives of individuals confronting unimaginable darkness and finding their way back into the light. Some names and identifying details have been changed at the request of those involved.
Drawing from her decades of experience as a crisis intervention counselor and child safety advocate, Gomes writes not as a distant observer but as a compassionate witness who has stood in the room where lives are fractured. This book is a tapestry of real stories: a young girl’s diary detailing domestic terror ignored by the systems meant to protect her; a family’s generations long struggle with inherited despair; the chilling account of a rental property that concealed a house of horrors; and the unnerving proximity to a notorious kidnapping that lasted eighteen years, hidden in plain sight.
Surviving Trauma moves beyond clinical analysis to offer something far more potent: intimate testimony. Readers walk alongside a mother fighting a broken judicial system for her child’s safety, a man unraveling the generational curse of emotional absence, and survivors of catastrophic loss who discover healing in the unexpected kindness of strangers. Gomes also turns a critical eye towards the institutions and societal failures that allow trauma to perpetuate, from overlooked mandates in schools to systemic breakdowns that failed to protect vulnerable individuals.
This is not a book that traffics in easy answers or silver linings. It is a raw, unflinching look at the damage inflicted by abuse, violence, neglect, and profound betrayal. Yet, within that honesty emerges its true power: a profound testament to resilience. These stories collectively shout that even when hope seems annihilated, the human spirit possesses a stubborn, often quiet, strength to rebuild, to forgive, and to choose life anew.
Surviving Trauma is more than a reading experience; it is an awakening. It promises readers who have felt alone in their pain the powerful realization that they are not. For anyone seeking to understand the complex aftermath of trauma, or for those simply in need of a profound story of human endurance, this book is an essential and unforgettable journey.
The book is available for purchase now on Amazon.
