Working with Rape & Sexual Violence

Working with Rape & Sexual Violence

Working with Rape and Sexual Violence is divided into ten chapters; which introduce factual, lived experiences within a range of complexities that regularly surround the trauma of rape and sexual violation.

*All books are also available to buy on Waterstones and eBay.

They illustrate current processes for working with clients. These can range from interventions such as talking therapies, paper exercises such as the ©Trauma Tapestry, ©Three Point Turn Around System (structured approach for working with rape and sexual violence), as well as up to date information about some of the most effective psychological processing tools, such as; EMDR (Eye movement desensitisation reprocessing), BSP (Brainspotting), Sensoriomotor Psychotherapy and VKD (Visual, Kinaesthetic Dissociation).

When someone tells you that they have been raped or sexually violated, whether as an adult or a child, it can be like being passed a box containing a fragile glass ball. They are telling you about their experience, because they trust you to hold the fragility of that glass ball with every ounce of care, understanding and kindness that you can muster. Whatever you do, be careful not to break that glass, shattering what self- worth and courage the client has bravely managed to hang on to until this point.
