`As a teacher, I was impressed. The book is clearly written and provides a fine introduction to the issues attendant on counseling survivors of sexual abuse. It is up-to-date and comprehensive without being plodding and avoids the cant that can bedevil the topic.' - PyschCritiques
This is an excellent book in relation to understanding the purpose of counselling with this vulnerable group of people it offers a detailed insight and analysis as well as key skills in developing greater consideration to undertaking this difficult task.
The text did not match the anticipated learning outcomes of the course as the content was not as I had expected.
Useful as an overview of the impacts of CSA and what to be aware of when working with survivors.
Recommended to students to supplement understanding and inform in module on Abuse and Abuser
This excellent book provides the right balance in the range of aspects covered, and a level of depth that will support it’s practical application. I particularly like the way in which case study extracts are used and discussed, giving the reader an opportunity to integrate content.
