You can witness his passion for healing addiction across many different television platforms, including Dr. Phil, The Doctors, Oprah, and more.

Dr. Darsa provides us with an overview of her book, which is carefully crafted to dispel myths surrounding trauma, and provides practical techniques for overcoming intrusive memories and the pervasive fear that follow traumatic events.
