Sumario: | "Survivors of childhood sexual abuse can use this book to begin a recovery journey informed by accurate understandings, not myths, and empowered by processes that help them thrive. This book helps survivors find the road to recovery and learn healthy practices that will lead to thriving, not just surviving. Written for men and women by an author who is herself a survivor, this guide tells the truth about what complex trauma means for your mental health, bodily systems, cognitive functions, and attachment styles. On that knowledge foundation you are invited to build eight key processes into your life, such as grief, meaning-making, healthy connections with others, forgiveness, and hope. Each of these is based in scientific findings from positive psychology. With self-assessments, journaling prompts, and suggested action steps to help you leave your darkness behind, this book is your essential interactive guide through the recovery journey"-- |
