"Galit Atlas deftly shows why the hurts and stuckness that can plague us can be faced and, yes, dissolved. Contemporary psychoanalysis at its best. " - Susie Orbach, author of Fat Is a Feminist IssuePast family trauma can keep us unconsciously connected to the past. It shapes our lives in ways we don' t always recognise, and can keep us from living to our full potential. In this transformative book, award-winning psychoanalyst Dr Galit Atlas draws back the veil on the legacy of intergenerational trauma. Entwining the stories of her patients, her own stories, and decades of research, she shows how the people we love and those who raised us live inside us - how we take on their emotional pain - and she helps us identify the links between our life struggles and the ' emotional inheritance' we all carry. For it is only by following the traces those ghosts leave that we can truly change our destiny.
Galit Atlas, PhD, is a psychoanalyst and clinical supervisor in private practice in Manhattan.

Atlas has published three books for clinicians and numerous articles and book chapters that focus primarily on gender and sexuality. A leader in the field of relational psychoanalysis, Dr Atlas is a recipient of the Andre Francois Research Award and the NADTA Research Award. She teaches and lectures throughout the United States and internationally.
