Foregrounding the voices of women who have survived experiences of
domestic sex trafficking in the US, this text implements
qualitative research methodologies to illustrate how experiences of
complex trauma have impact on women's identities, sexuality,
relationships, and re-integration into communities. Building on
theoretical understandings of complex trauma and posttraumatic
growth, this volume centers insights from in-depth interviews and
photovoice methodology to document survivors' experience of sex
trafficking and recovery. Outlining the nature of support and
services available, the text identifies recommendations for
effective recovery and in doing so, emphasizes women's capacity for
post-traumatic growth. Relationship development, therapeutic and
peer-support are highlighted as primary sources of healing.
Ultimately, the text affirms the need for trauma-informed,
ecological, and relational perspectives in the care of survivors.
This text will benefit researchers, academics, and educators with
an interest in trauma studies, clinical social work, and those
working in mental health research more broadly. The text will also
support further discussion and reflection around mental health
services and support systems, adult trauma counselling, and mental
health policy.
