With the Phoenix Rising by Frances K. Grossman & Alexandra B. Cook & Selin S. Kepkep
Lessons from Ten Resilient Women Who Overcame the Trauma of Childhood Sexual Abuse
Why do some people overcome traumatic childhood experiences while others suffer terrible psychological consequences? This question is at the heart of this work, in which 10 survivors of abuse were interviewed and studied over a course of several years.The devastating effects of childhood sexual abuse have been widely chronicled, validating the difficulty with which many survivors struggle. Often overlooked are the millions of women who have overcome early trauma to lead successful, happy lives. Why do these women-whom we might otherwise have expected to fail-have such tremendous strength and resilience? This question is at the heart of With the Phoenix Rising as it paints a moving and optimistic portrait of ten women who have overcome the trauma of childhood sexual abuse and shows how their resilient success can be encouraged in others who have suffered similar traumas. |
