Dr. Scheeringa's newest book, The Trouble With Trauma: The Search to Discover How Beliefs Become Facts, was released February 2022.
He provides a ringside seat to reveal the myths of toxic stress, complex PTSD, mother-blaming for children's problems, and trauma-informed approaches. Scheeringa asked, "Why do experts in psychological trauma believe ideas that are not true, and feel compelled to sell them as facts? Trauma has become an ideology based on several beliefs that are unproven and is divisive for society. In this book, I explain the science, and describe my three rules of how belief becomes fact.”
Child psychiatrist Michael Scheeringa, MD brings more than 28 years of clinical practice
and groundbreaking research in the field of posttraumatic stress disorder in youths.
