5.0 out of 5 stars Informative, down to earth guide for survivors of abuse, 7 Dec 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Breaking Free: Help for Survivors of Child Sexual Abuse (Insight) (Paperback)
This book is excellent. It contains straightforward and down-to-earth information and support for people who have survived childhood sexual abuse. The exercises in the book provide a structure that is really helpful and guides the person along the process of working through and understanding the effects that sexual abuse can have on individuals and then thinking about how to change. As a mental health professional I have found it extremely useful and informative in my work with survivors.

5.0 out of 5 stars Once And A While, 28 July 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Breaking Free: Help for Survivors of Child Sexual Abuse (Insight) (Paperback)
One and a while a book will come along that will change the perception you have for yourself. In this case, my own case, a child of sexual abuse-I was fortunate enough to find several books that have helped me to understand,learn and grow past the abuse. Those books are: "Breaking Free: Help for Survivors of Child Sexual Abuse", "Nightmares Echo" and "Courage To Heal".
If you want your life to change, even if you have not been abused but suspect of someone that may have been-It's time to read these books!

5.0 out of 5 stars Very positive focus, 16 Mar 2005
By A Customer
This review is from: Breaking Free: Help for Survivors of Child Sexual Abuse (Insight) (Paperback)
Many books on this difficult subject are considerably depressing (as the subject is) but often, instead of helping one out of doom & gloom, could almost spiral them downwards. This very easy-to-read book not only explains, but guides, and focuses on the positives. The life after!!! In fact, it is super-positive in explaining and exploring and gives more than hope, it gives a good grip on reality about how positive change can come about. Enhance your life and understand it, don't see yourself as a victim, grab this book.
