Rowman & Littlefield Surviving: Why We Stay and How We Leave Abusive
Book SynopsisA revealing look at why domestic abuse victims stay with their abusers…and how they can ultimately leave. And survive.One Saturday morning, Gooden is woken up by her husband shoving her off the bed for no discernible reason. Despite her quick thinking and even quicker footsteps, her husband catches her, his sudden anger unfathomable. No words are exchanged. He strangles her nearly to death. With unflinching vulnerability, Gooden outlines in painstaking detail what she had to do to walk away and live and how others can learn from her experiences, from skimming the grocery money, to squirreling away personal belongings, to navigating domestic violence shelters. She offers strategies for overcoming the barriers survivors often come up against, such as money, logistics, social circles, or, most powerfully: love. Uniquely compassionate when it comes to the heartbreak of still loving one’s abuser, Gooden shares how she transformed and extended this love outward, using her story to encourage others to share their own. The voice and fire behind the #WhyIStayed, Bev Gooden is uniquely positioned to explore the many reasons women stay in abusive relationships, and how they can muster the resources and motivation to leave. Surviving is unlike any memoir of survivorship, given its nuance, compassion, and candor. Above all, it is an exquisitely powerful testament to Gooden’s healing, survivorship, and dedication to helping others do the same.

North Star Press of Saint Cloud Inc House of Fire: A Story of Love, Courage, and
Book SynopsisHouse of Fire shows that thirty years of breaking free from a cycle of violence was not enough to prepare Elizabeth di Grazia for the trials of starting her own family. Growing up in the 1970s, she suffered repeated sexual abuse, incest, and neglect. Although in the Catholic church, she was forced to have a hushed-up abortion at the age of fourteen. Within a year she was pregnant again, by another brother. Di Grazia gave birth to a son who was quickly taken away and adopted into a family she never knew. Elizabeth's story traces her healing and the creation of an intentional family. She and her partner, Jody, adopted two Guatemalan babies. They learned that provision and protection were not enough, but refused to allow denial and secrets to go unexposed became critical.

Pavilion Publishing and Media Ltd Childhood Trauma and Recovery: A Child-Centred
Book SynopsisThis book presents authoritative guidance to inform and enhance best practice in helping children affected by early life sexual trauma to recover and lead healthy lives. At its heart is the pioneering work of Mary Walsh, who in 1987 co-founded Sexual Abuse Child Consultancy Services (SACCS) in order to provide such children with specialist care and treatment and train practitioners in the skills required to deliver it. By developing recovery teams that crossed traditional working boundaries to put the child at the centre of all activity, the SACCS approach allowed young people to replace unhealthy ways of thinking with stronger, more appropriate cause-effect mechanisms. The book presents Mary's model for more effective recovery work - a model based on putting children first, ensuring that they feel safe and trusted, learning to communicate effectively with them and actively helping them to heal.Table of ContentsPreface Acknowledgements Introduction Chapter 1: The roots of the approach Chapter 2: Developing the approach Chapter 3: The journey of ideas Chapter 4: The terror of abuse Chapter 5: The importance of recovery Chapter 6: Being child centred Chapter 7: Equality, diversity and inclusion Chapter 8: Caring for the carers Conclusion References Appendix I: Guide to Further Learning Appendix II: The Children's Stories Appendix III: The Mary Walsh Approach in a Nutshell

Caitlin Press No Way to Run: A Mother and Son Story of
Book SynopsisOn 3 September 2010, the RCMP in Grande Prairie, Alberta, received a 911 call from Mat Crichton about a shooting on a local farm. Seconds later, miles from home, Holly Crichton got a shocking call from her son. I just shot Dad, Mat told her. The violent end to a violent situation came as no surprise to the community; Holly and her sons had been living in terror from the abuse of her husband for many years. Surprisingly, when Holly and her youngest son were disabled in separate accidents, the abuse did not subside it only escalated. Fiercely protective of her younger son, Holly rarely left the farm. But in time, Mat met and married a woman he loved, moving into a house on the family''s land. Encouraged by a family friend, Holly pushed her worries aside one September long weekend and set off with the friend for a music festival. She was there when Mat''s call reached her. As she raced to Mat''s side, she vowed that the vicious cycle of domestic violence that had claimed her husband''s life would not claim her son''s as well. But in a shocking turn of events, the police characterized the elderly father as the victim, and the son, Mat, as the aggressor. The community turned out in full force to prevent Mat from being convicted on a first-degree murder charge, and eventually the sentence was reduced to manslaughter. With an incredible support team of friends, neighbours and lawyers surrounding her, Holly mounted an epic effort on her son''s behalf. NO WAY TO RUN is Holly Crichton''s story of tenacity, hope, love and courage and a remarkable testament to the power of community. Crichton''s humour and unending reserve of hope and perseverance is an extraordinary example of a woman and her children''s choice to survive.
