Spiritual Healing from Sexual Violence

"Spiritual Healingfrom Sexual Violence approaches healing from sexual violence from an intersectional perspective that brings forth the voices of people with BOTH lived experience and professional training. It is also an act of antiracism in that contributing authors are from BIPOC communities. Additionally, it integrates religion and spirituality and helps the reader grapple with the complexities of our intersectional social identities and the ways in which those inform our experiences and approaches to intervention with and support of survivors." Tammy Hatfield, PhD,professor in the School of Social and Behavioral Sciences at the University of the Cumberlands, Kentucky, USA

"Spiritual Healingfrom Sexual Violence encompasses spirituality as both a destructive and healing means. For many this will make the book more appealing and broad reaching. This book, I believe, will resonate with some survivors for whom more traditional talk therapy has not proved as effective." Miriam Duignan,head of communication at the Wijngaards Institute for Catholic Research, UK

"What’s fascinating for readers about using Spiritual Healingfrom Sexual Violence is the intersectional, interdisciplinary ways of thinking. There is so much about which readers can become more curious when the various themes touch their humanity from different perspectives. The themes chosen for each chapter in this book are engaging, and each chapter turns the prism of understanding." Marge Kloos, pastoral care professor emeritus, University of Mount St. Joseph,Ohio, USA
