Join award-winning author Bonnie Armstrong in a conversation about her new inspiring memoir, An Apparently Normal Person. Commemorating Mental Health Awareness Month, Bonnie will share the mystery of how she learned about her dissociation, a survival mechanism that became a catalyst for healing. Bonnie is a well-respected educator and advocate for those living with the impacts of childhood trauma, including dissociative identity disorder and other trauma responses.
