Pros & Cons
Pros
This book is amazing, empowering and a must have for anyone who is a survivor or interacts with survivors. Its a very informative book, written for survivors in a realistic manner.
This book is hard. Be brave and reward your survivor self with this book. It’s an easy read too vs being textbook like.
It is helpful if you are working with a therapist, but also is beneficial for someone just looking for answers and support. He offers great insights and exercises to do with one's therapist. Survivors' words and artwork are very powerful.
Working through trauma is the hardest thing i have ever done, but so very worth it. The survivor stories show how to break the bad thought patterns which enable the reader to see how the healing comes about.
Cons
See deuteronomy 22:6 but unto the damsel thou shalt do nothing. When someone you love suffers from posttraumatic stress byclaudia zayfert phd and the * healing journey by wendy maltz are much more readable.

Matt atkinson has a huge heart and helps female rape survivors overcome their struggles with the aftermath of sexual violence
I was so awestruck with the insight to my perceptions that i took a highlighter and just highlighted everything i felt pertained to me
I agree with the others that it is a very good idea to work with a counselortherapist while working through this book
I had bought the book with the intent of working through things on my own and discontinuing my counseling at the rape crisis center

A good point from the book if youve been raped find a good therapist one that understands and has been trained in treating sexual assault

Often times a therapist or psychiatrist is very good at what they do but that doesnt mean theyre good at treating someone healing from rape

It is not easy to get through and far from a light read but the best accomplishments are not easily won
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I am amazed that a guy has written something that expounds on the pain and misery that a victim of sexual assault feels and know how to extract the pain with the right questions and reveal the princess underneath the dross or scum dirt and mildew

I have a trauma story that includes multiple sexual assaults though i have been in and out of therapy over the years to work on healing from that i never found a resource that i actually found to be helpful
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
A lot of books for rape survivors are informational but not many really walk you through a process of healing
