An excellant book for both therapists and survivors of childhood sexual abuse. The information is presented in a very sensitive fashion that is less likely to evoke a strong negative effect in survivors. It invites the reader to explore the devastating effects of sexual abuse at their own speed. The author reiterates the importance of self care and support throughout the healing process and gives many suggestions as to how to do this in healthy manner. A fine and gentle introduction to a troubling subject.

This book is helpful to many of my clients; they have not previously participated in therapy. While those who have attempted to deal with their pain in the past might not benefit as much, (the book contains very basic information), those beginning to deal with this issue would find support, encouragement and easily understood information within this book. Very practical, very sympathetic.
