Healing Sexually Betrayed Men and Boys: Treatment for Sexual Abuse,
Assault, and Trauma is the new authoritative source for treatment
of sexually victimized men and boys. Male victims and survivors of
sexual trauma lived in shadow until the turn of the 21st century,
when scandal after scandal about the sexual abuse of boys and men
shed light on their suffering. These men and boys require different
treatment roadmaps than their female counterparts. Yet there is
little in the professional literature to help a clinician work with
sexually traumatized boys and men. Richard B. Gartner is a seasoned
psychologist/psychoanalyst who has worked therapeutically with
sexually abused men for over three decades. He is a clinician,
advocate, teacher, lecturer, and nationally and internationally
recognized expert on the subject. Dr. Gartner's classic book,
Betrayed as Boys: Psychodynamic Treatment of Sexually Abused Men,
is one of the few written to guide clinicians. Now, nearly two
decades after writing that groundbreaking volume, he follows up on
his earlier work. Healing Sexually Abused Men and Boys, together
with its companion volume, Understanding the Sexual Betrayal of
Boys and Men, is a thorough, comprehensive guide to learning about
and healing male victims and survivors. Dr. Gartner has invited a
group of experts to write about specific problems faced by these
boys and men. Specialists from the psychoanalytic, psychodynamic,
trauma, and legal worlds fill in the details about a wide range of
interconnected subjects related to the complex reverberations of
male sexual trauma. Healing Sexually Betrayed Men and Boys covers
such diverse topics as: therapy with young sexually traumatized
boys; the aftermath for men who were raped as adults ; covert
seduction of boys and its aftereffects; treatment for substance
addictions and sexual compulsions; couples work with male survivors
and their partners or spouses; bodywork with male survivors;
treatment for male veterans who suffered sexual trauma in the
military; profiling sexual predators and working with survivors who
have also been sexual predators. This book is a valuable resource
for clinicians at every level of training. With strategies for how
survivors can build support networks and descriptions of clinical,
familial, and community-based treatments, Healing Sexually Betrayed
Men and Boys is essential reading for clinicians of all theoretical
persuasions who work with male sexual abuse survivors. Filling in
gaps in the relatively scant literature on the subject, it will
also help sexually abused or assaulted men themselves understand
what is available to them.
