Publisher's Summary

If you have experienced sexual abuse, assault, harassment, or rape, you may feel disconnected from your sexual self—even if you've overcome the initial trauma. You are a survivor, but surviving is just the beginning.

Written by a psychologist and grounded in cutting-edge research, Reclaiming Pleasure picks up where other sexual trauma recovery books leave off. It offers practical tools to help you cultivate a sense of safety, security, and trust in order to reclaim the vitality, pleasure, and great sex you deserve. The book will also serve as your compass on a journey toward the rediscovery of desire, letting you explore what you want from others and for yourself.

This groundbreaking book will help you:

  • Understand the lasting mental, physical, sexual, and relational impacts of sexual trauma
  • Move beyond feelings of shame
  • Reclaim pleasure and reignite passion in your life

Surviving is merely the first step in the process of recovery. With this sex-positive and empowering guide, you are invited to take your recovery to the next level. You'll feel emboldened by the desire for better sex, healthier relationships, and a more connected, pleasurable life.

About rebuilding sexuality after trauma.

The author definitely takes a different approach to dealing with trauma than most. Despite having sections on dealing with early stages of sexual trauma, this book is definitely not a primer. I would only suggest it if you’re far enough along in dealing with any sexual trauma that your actively looking to re-engage in sexual activity. Even then you’ll probably still need the help of an experienced professional in sexual wellbeing, but this book could be a nice motivation or general guide for some.
