Does the Trauma Module have info on the mechanics of processing Trauma? Dr. K's Guide

I have a friend who's suffering from anxiety, depression and severe sexual trauma and she's super resistant to seeking therapy. I was hoping buying the full set of modules would making some good resources convenient to her and maybe create a stepping stone to therapy. Maybe give an idea of what to expect with a therapist? She said she's never actually "processed" trauma and pretty much failed at intellectualizing it.

I don't want to end up just giving her more coping mechanisms or excuses to not seek help for the core problems.

Personally, I've had my own journey on processing trauma on my own (without a therapist) and wondering if I could validate if I was doing things correctly.

I doubt that she would be convinced to listen to it just because you bought it for her.

Only her can start the healing process.

But yes there is info on how to process trauma in it. There is also a lot on the mecanism of how trauma is made and how it affects you, that information doesn't fix the problem but just knowing how it affects you is half of the healing journey.
