The Wolf in a Suit is not just the true and uncensored story of a young Australian  mother and her children living in violence and torment. This book also contains solutions and understandings about how women get caught, why women stay, what is required for true healing and how as an individual, professional and community we need to grow beyond the current limited mindset and major gaps of knowledge.   

The Wolf in a Suit was written 25 years after the author, Anita Bentata, became a psychotherapist and counsellor. In this raw and powerful book, Anita combines her personal story and professional experience to offer missing pieces beyond understanding the fourteen types of family violence. You will discover the unspoken layers on how an intelligent woman in modern times can get caught in abuse, the three keys to awakening to reality - and what it took to escape.   

This in-depth account of the courage required to finally leave, exposes the darker   side of relationships and what really happens behind closed doors. This book exposes blind spots in society and families - using fairy tales to explore the human experience of becoming free, science, psychology and real life philosophy to look at solutions within the brain, body, the unconscious, family and society.   

The Wolf in a Suit provides a path out for women in abusive relationships and solutions for professionals and friends who hold concern for others. Let’s not spend more time talking about the same old information. There are important details missing from the conversation. No more. It is time to break the binds of secrecy and shame.
