The Longest War: A Psychotherapist's Experience of Divorce, Custody, and Power b

Description: The Longest War by Catherine Harrington Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description To maintain access to her two sons, Catherine must face her childhood trauma, give up people-pleasing, and develop the backbone needed to stand up to her ex-husband, a wealthy lawyer. She uses her training in psychology for her own self-understanding and growth through their years of court hearings, never giving up the fight for her right to be her sons mother. Publisher Description As a naive freshman, Catherine meets Walter, a senior and Big Man on Campus whose sophistication, confidence, and wealth both intimidate and excite her. A three-year absentee courtship follows, during which time the idea of Walt tethers Catherine to safety. She was programmed to marry someone like him, so she ignores the warning signs that they might not be a good match. Hoping to please her mother and seeking refuge from her fraught childhood, she marries and has children with him-but the marriage doesnt last. Once divorced, Catherine finds herself in a war with Walt over money, and then over access to her children-and suddenly, she can no longer ignore her childhood trauma. The high stakes of her battle with her ex-husband forge her like steel, finding every vulnerability where she needs to heal. Gradually, she develops a backbone, relinquishes her trauma-induced, people-pleasing ways, and steps into her own power. Honest and unflinching, The Longest War reminds us that theres always a way through when we access the courage within ourselves. No matter how painful lifes difficulties, they offer us the opportunity to heal ourselves and evolve into more open, loving, compassionate people. The choice is ours.
