Walking Free from the Trauma of Coercive, Cultic and Spiritual Abuse: A Workbook for Recovery and Growth By Gillie Jenkinson
practical & educational
Practical skill building worksheets are coupled with easy to understand text. I’m not in the mental health field but have read dozens of books on cults, coercive control, abusive groups and relationships. Jenkinson breaks all the theories and concepts down so they are easy to understand, discern, and apply using well thought out worksheets. This is an excellent resource for personal use and for working with others in cultivating organizations and relationships. I highly recommend adding this book to your library. 354
This is an interactive self-help workbook and psychological road map to enable survivors of coercive, cultic and spiritual abuse to find healing, recovery and growth.
This book provides a comprehensive guide to recovery, based on a tested model of post-cult counselling, and years of research and clinical experience. It is designed to help survivors of diverse abusive settings, including religious and spiritual, political, gangs, business, therapy and wellness and one-on-one relationships. The reader follows a beautifully illustrated journey through four Phases of recovery and growth, one Milestone at a time, to make sense of what has happened to them, learn how to walk free from psychological control and find resources for healing. The author includes stories from her own experience, detailing her path towards recovery and how she learned to come to terms with and overcome what happened to her.
Written in accessible language, this workbook serves as both a self-help book for survivors and former members, and a guide for therapists working with them. Walking Free from the Trauma of Coercive, Cultic and Spiritual Abuse: A Workbook for Recovery and Growth
