This one-of-a-kind guide serves as a rich and essential resource
for mental health professionals working with women whose lives have
been shattered by the trauma of sexual, physical, or emotional
abuse. The principles set forth are based on Maxine Harris's
groundbreaking work with some of the most symptomatic trauma
survivors, including women who have been incarcerated or
institutionalized, and those with histories of drug addiction,
serious mental illness, and/or homelessness.
The detailed treatment presented in Trauma Recovery and
Empowerment is based on the author's conviction that symptomatic
behavior often begins as a survivor's response to overwhelming
trauma. Part One of the intervention focuses on empowerment and
wellness issues designed to help women overcome feelings of
victimization. Women are then better able to tackle the topics in
parts Two and Three of the manual on emotional, sexual, and
physical abuse and the far-reaching impact such trauma has on their
relationships, emotional stability, and careers. Leaders are guided
through the intervention with specific discussion questions, a
sampling of typical responses, and experimental exercise for each
topic. The manual concludes with step-by-step procedures for
tailoring the intervention to specific populations.
