The
right To Innocence was one of the first books written on how to recover from
sexual abuse and has become a classic in the field.
Beverly has worked extensively with victims of sexual abuse and was herself
sexually abused as a child. In THE RIGHT TO INNOCENCE, she offers hope for
recovery with exercises, visualizations, and
techniques that support you through a seven-step program, that will aid you in:
facing the truth, releasing your anger, confronting those responsible with facts
and feelings, forgiving yourself, and more healing advice and information.
You don't have to remain a victim of childhood sexual abuse. With the loving
support and practical guidance in THE RIGHT TO INNOCENCE, you can reclaim your
power and your right to health and happiness.
"A practical and powerful must-read book for all who have
suffered childhood sexual abuse, their family members and loved ones, and for
all mental health professionals."
