Gay Men and Childhood Sexual Trauma: Integrating the Shattered Self: Integrating the Shattered Self

This book offers new hope by separating the crime of paedophilia from the consensual intimacy of an adult male same-sex relationship. It offers practical treatment suggestions as well as moving insights into the painful conflicts gay men have in accepting their own sexuality and revealing their status as survivors of child abuse. Offering sufficient technical detail to be useful for the therapist, this book is written with enough clarity and compassion to be used as a self-help guide for men just coming out as gay, as survivor, or as both.
