Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In chronicling the physical and spiritual steps she took to reclaim her life and peel away the layers of damage done by incest, Jenson has written a powerful narrative of one person’s healing journey. And though the subject matter is deeply serious, Jenson writes with her sense of humor firmly intact, reminding us that joy is possible in the face of great pain. Poignant, brave, and helpful, Healing My Life offers a much-needed testimony for anyone affected by or concerned about childhood sexual abuse. “Healing My Life is a story that is unique and personal in its detail, yet also universal and human in its impact. If we could raise even one generation without violence or shaming, we have no idea what might be possible.” —Gloria Steinem “What an accomplishment! Taking the raw pain of incest, Donna Jenson has offered the world a generous dose of hope and delivered a clear message to survivors: healing is possible. Everyone who has survived childhood sexual abuse is stronger knowing each other’s journey. By eloquently sharing hers, Donna reminds us of a simple truth: we can heal.” —Marilyn Vanderbur, Miss America 1958 who survived incest
Book Synopsis Working With Adult Incest Survivors by : Sam Kirschner
Download or read book Working With Adult Incest Survivors written by Sam Kirschner and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-08-08 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on their extensive experience, the authors present an approach to the treatment of the adult incest survivor. This combines cognitive- behavioural, psychodynamic, and family treatment perspectives to encompass the full breadth and scope of the healing and recovery process. While acknowledging the need for the survivor to become conscious of the incestuous experience and its impact, the authors view memory retrieval as only the first step in healing; the ultimate goal is letting go of the past to actively reinvent the present. The book presents specific guidelines for the initial, middle and end phases of the therapy, for family-of-origin therapy, and for treatment of the male incest survivor.

Book Synopsis From Surviving to Thriving by : Christine Dinsmore
Download or read book From Surviving to Thriving written by Christine Dinsmore and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 1991-07-03 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book will be of great value to any survivor of incest. Equally important, Christine Dinsmore teaches the rest of us—therapists, family members, and friends—how to be helpful to the survivor who takes on the task of ending the secrecy, recovering memories, and experiencing feelings. Dinsmore points out that the recovery process is unique for each survivor. You won't find any pat formulas here. Instead, the reader is left with a sensitivity and an awareness of the role one might play in the survivor's journey." — from the Foreword, Jane R. Hirschmann From Surviving to Thriving: Incest, Feminism, and Recovery analyzes incest recovery from a feminist perspective. It is based on research with incest survivors and years of therapy with survivors of childhood sexual abuse. Unlike other writings on incest recovery, this book links the incest with patriarchy and its belief in male sexual entitlement. The discussions of incest and its traumatic effects, society's response to the sexual abuse of children, the recovery process, and the role of the supporting cast are reinforced by the words of incest survivors themselves. A detailed account of the incest healing treatment is also provided with specific treatments suggested for therapists working with incest survivors.

Book Synopsis Healing the Whole by : Yvette M. Pennacchia
Download or read book Healing the Whole written by Yvette M. Pennacchia and published by Burns & Oates. This book was released on 1994 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As more memories surfaced, more shame began to emerge.... By writing, I could put some distance between myself and my shame without stopping the process.... As I continued to heal and share my writing with other incest survivors, I was encouraged, supported, and validated by the notion that maybe my writing could help others. I had been keeping a detailed journal for several years and had no prior thoughts of ever publishing it or becoming a writer. Although there were some books on incest that described the process, I had not come across one that revealed those many intimate steps a survivor would need to take, such as walking through the feelings of shame convinced that you are going to die, or the terror of discovering one's sexual identity that is free from abuse. It was then I decided I would publish my journal and share my daily triumphs and agonies.

Book Synopsis The Word No One Wants to Speak by : Loretta Joy Powers
Download or read book The Word No One Wants to Speak written by Loretta Joy Powers and published by Archway Publishing. This book was released on 2024-04-09 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of The Word No One Wants to Speak – Incest a Healing Journey is to describe to incest victims and their family members the journey from sudden memories, to weekly sessions of therapy and support groups. For hundreds of years sexual abuse was kept secret, first because the memories were suppressed and then because the severe shock of remembering was emotionally devastating. And another reason was no family wanted to accept the possibility of this abuse. In our day, therapy has been accepted. Therapists can specialize in helping people heal from the emotional trauma of incest. This is a huge change.
