Your trauma did not mark the end of your life — but it did change the way you move through the world.
After trauma, many people are told to "just move on" without being given language, tools, or guidance for what moving forward actually looks like. Moving Forward was written to meet that gap.
In this book, Stephanie M. Hutchins, PhD, addresses the questions trauma survivors most often ask once the immediate crisis has passed:
- How do you live with what happened without being defined by it?
- How do you handle triggers when they arise?
- How do you rebuild trust — in yourself and in others?
- How do you move forward without bypassing the pain or forcing forgiveness?
Drawing from her professional background and personal healing journey, Dr. Hutchins offers practical tools and grounded insight for navigating life after trauma. Rather than promising a quick fix, this book helps you understand your responses, interrupt unhelpful patterns, and develop steadier ways of relating to your thoughts, emotions, and memories.
Moving Forward is for those who are no longer just surviving, but who are ready to live with greater clarity, self-trust, and choice — even while carrying a past that cannot be undone.
