Overview
Spirituality for Survivors of Childhood Sexual Abuse, Sandra M. Flaherty. Explores the journey of recovery from childhood sexual abuse focusing on accessing one's spiritual life as a means for healing.Editorials
Library Journal
Flaherty provides seven sensitive chapters entitled ``Remembering,'' ``Sorrow,'' ``Depression,'' ``Fear,'' ``Anger,'' ``Acceptance,'' and ``Forgiveness,'' together with an introduction and conclusion. She takes the reader, whether counselor or survivor, through stages in the recovery process but cautions against imposing them or seeking the later stages too readily. Her belief that recovery is participation in the Paschal mystery of Jesus provides the hope that undergirds her presentation of the journey toward recovery and the confrontation with spiritual issues that it entails. For seminary and public libraries.Book Details
