4.0 out of 5 stars
Written for counselors, but helpful for survivors and their loved ones,
By S. J. Snyder "De gustibus non disputandum" (Various, United States) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Treating Addicted Survivors of Trauma (Paperback)
If you're a survivor of sexual, physical or emotional abuse, as well as the sufferer (whether currently active or not) of some sort of substance addiction, you can find a lot of wonderful insights in this book about how your abuse affected your addiction, and how it affected you in other ways.
The only reason I don't five-star it is it goes too far down the 12-Step straight and narrow as far as suggestions on how to get help for addiction. "Secular" or "non-Step" alternatives aren't even mentioned. I don't think that's totally the product of ignorance, either; HCI is second only to Hazelden as a recovery publisher and is, basically, 12-Step "invested" to the gills. That said, survivors of trauma and addiction who are well clear of Step groups can still get good help from this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Five Stars, well written for anyone to understand,
This review is from: Treating Addicted Survivors of Trauma (Paperback)
The prior reviewer sounded like me before I read this book. While he did give it a four, a part of him could not or did not find the safety and sobriety that took me back to my 12 step support family. Thank you. MK
