It is possible to heal from sexual abuse. In "Soaring Above the Ashes: Thriving Beyond Childhood Sexual Abuse," a diverse group of survivors tell their stories in their own voices. They describe the journey from helplessness to empowerment, from isolation to connection, from grief to joy. By giving their names, telling their stories, and showing their faces in black and white portraits, they have defied the perpetrators who could no longer shame or threaten them into silence. These men and women are proud of who they have become. Between the stories are essays Dr. Samuelson wrote about her own healing journey as a survivor with recovered memories and a psychologist who has specialized in treating trauma for over 35 years.
