Synopsis

This candid and deeply personal book chronicles the author’s journey of recovery from severe sadistic childhood sexual abuse, tracing the tumultuous first steps on his path toward healing and a deeper understanding of trauma.

Blending psychological insight with lived experience, the author integrates theory into his personal narrative. Since the book’s initial publication in 2002, many more men have come forward to share their own stories of abuse. However, this volume offers a comprehensive and detailed account of the beginning of the recovery process, making it a valuable resource for therapists, survivors of abuse, and those who support and love them. Though it details horrendous abuse, betrayal and violation, it is fundamentally a story about the resiliency of the human psyche.

Warning: This book includes in-depth descriptions and discussions of sadistic child abuse. The content is presented to encourage others in their healing by providing educational and critical insights into the process of healing from childhood sexual abuse.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

For the early decades of his career, Bob focused on work with men who had histories of major sexual and physical abuse as Bob had. He used various forms of parts work (Ego State Therapy, Gestalt, and Pia Mellody's work among others) but some 15 years ago he discovered Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS) and is now focused exclusively on IFS which he finds to be the most respectful and powerful modality. His own recovery is the deep basis for all his work. Bob has taught IFS extensively and internationally online and has led classes and trainings in Pakistan, China, South Korea, Mexico, Poland, Spain, Canada, the UK, and for the Fort Belknap reservation. He has also been on the staff of over 20 of the official IFS institute trainings. Bob has been actively involved with psychedelics since 1967 and continues to view them as a powerful pathway.He is the author of five books related to IFS and inner healing: Many Minds, One Self (2017), co-authored with Richard C. Schwartz, founder of IFS; The Others Within Us (2023); When Going Through Hell... Keep Going (2024); Opening the Inner World (2025), co-authored with two experts on Emanuel Swedenborg; and Spirit (2025), a compilation drawn from journals of his daily dialogues with Spirit. His latest book is Self Unbroken, about the beginnings of recovery from severe childhood sexual abuse. Now at in his late seventies, Bob spends much of his time writing and teaching and leading supervision classes, only occasionally seeing individuals, often with their therapist.
