She shows readers quick, intuitive ways to re-regulate your nervous system on the spot, as well as a method that she’s developed over the past 30 years to process the thoughts and feelings that get blocked by the impact of childhood trauma on the nervous system.Kathryn also interviews Author Irene Daria PhD.Today, Irene Daria is a cognitive developmental psychologist and reading tutor to the stars, including the children of Kate Winslet, Cate Blanchett, and Tom Brady and Bridget Moynahan. At the time of this memoir, she was a graduate student and “just” a mom thrilled that her son had been accepted to one of the most esteemed public schools in Manhattan. Sure that he was on the path to a venerable education, she did not listen when her 5-year-old told her that he—like millions of other children—was not being taught how to read in school. An entire, very painful school year passed before Eric got her to realize he was right. Follow along as Daria begins a perplexing but ultimately empowering journey to save his academic life. She has worked as a reporter at Women’s Wear Daily and an editor at Harper’s Bazaar and has written hundreds of articles for publications ranging from The NY Times and Money, to Parents, Mademoiselle and Glamour.
