This book provides an integrative theoretical model of abuse by
drawing on cognitive, behavioral, psychodynamic, and attachment
theories. The clarity of the presentation, the detailed and concise
treatment manual approach, and the hands-on case studies will give
the reader powerful tools for modifying the effects of early
abuse.

The authors provide an innovative, compassionate, imagery-based
treatment approach for victims of child sexual abuse. They offer
detailed treatment guidelines, informative transcripts, and
sensitive case reports to illustrate how to empower patients and
how to help them find meaning. Highly recommended!

This is the most comprehensive volume to date on the impact of
childhood abuse on adult survivors. In addition to a very careful
delineation of the meaning of the sexual and physical abuse, the
authors provide a stunning description of the treatment through
imagery. This book is a must for any mental health worker whose
patients have had childhood trauma.

Pennsylvania School of Medicine*
