Sexual Abuse Books That I Recommend. By Manashantii Thursday 27th November 2014

The best book I have read on child sexual abuse is called ” Counselling Adult Survivors of Child Sexual Abuse by Christiane Sanderson published by Jessica Kingsley Publishers.” The author Christiane Sanderson explains in depth how the psychotherapist can understand the clients mind and how the psychotherapist can facilitate the clients healing. I have had a few psychotherapy sessions with Christiane she is a very competent therapist and has worked extensively with clients and the British police. I am the proud owner of two of her books which she signed for me. I have had one of her books since around 1991. This a psychotherapy based book.
