Healing
I have
provided quotes from some of the texts available to give the
general tone of the work. Most people glance at the
front page of reading material first so I thought this would
help people decide if a certain book is right for
them.

This
manual is a session by session outline of what should take
place in therapy for a rape victim. It lists skills to
be taught, issues to be discussed, and homework to be
assigned. It would be very useful to rape survivors in
understanding the therapy process.
Introductory
quote:
“Rape is a crime against sleep and memory; it’s
afterimage imprints itself like an irreversible negative from
the camera obscura of dreams… Violence sends deep roots into
the heart; it has no seasons; it is always ripe,
evergreen.”
Pat Conroy, The Prince of
Tides
