About this item
by Sharlisa L. Byrd (Author)
The wear and tear of systemic harm does not stay in the mind, it lives in the body.
For Black and POC clinicians, the cost of caring is often compounded by racialized stress, institutional pressure, and the quiet expectation to endure without rest. Healing the Healers introduces the BYRD Model, a somatic framework centered on Belonging, Yielding, Resilience, and Disruption, created to support clinicians navigating trauma while holding space for others.
Grounded in nervous system science, liberation psychology, and lived experience, Sharlisa Byrd offers a pathway toward embodied restoration. This book moves beyond coping strategies and invites reclamation - of safety, voice, rest, and agency.
If you have been carrying more than your share, this book is an invitation to lay your burden down.
