She is the founder and CEO of San Francisco’s Center for Youth Wellness, the subject of a widely read New Yorker profile, and presenter of the popular TED talk “How childhood trauma affects health across a lifetime.” Through scientific evidence and affecting stories of individual impact, The Deepest Well presents a vital argument for how childhood stresses create lifelong neural system changes.
