Reviews Excellent book using practical, real life material., 22 December, 2001
Synopsis
A workbook for survivors of sexual abuse, to use alongside "Breaking
Free", or on its own. With more emphasis on practical exercises than
"Breaking Free", the workbook offers to help the reader explore the
problems that child sexual abuse often causes survivors in later life. The
exercises should develop understanding, and help the survivors to work through
the problems and develop healthy coping strategies. There is encouragement to
the reader to find support and back-up actively as they work through the book.
Reviewer: A reader from UK
A practical up to date self-help book for survivors of child sexual abuse. It
focuses on the findings of the therapists using real life writings of their
clients different feelings and situations. This makes it very accessible to the
lay person and professional alike. It offers survivors strategies for coping and
obtaining support when embarking on breaking free from their past, which can be
very upsetting and painful. It also helps anyone who wants to gain more
understanding of the issues that face people who have been sexually abused and
how to overcome them. An excellent resource book which should be found in every
library and book store.
