“This is a powerful and valuable book on many levels. First, rape and abuse survivors will identify with the actual and richly-described internal and external struggles Anna faces on her journey toward healing. Second, her nuanced description of her IFS therapy is instructive for all stripe of therapist. Third, it helps the family and friends better understand and empathically relate to survivors. I recommend it highly!” -Richard C. Schwartz, Ph.D., creator of the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model of psychotherapy
“There are many theories about recovery from PTSD and the mental illness issues associated with rape, and author Anna Gulden bravely demonstrates a collection of methods which have helped her on her healing journey. Each one is carefully described and personally connected to her experiences in the past and present, both informing and helping the reader to understand the process and how it might help them too. There are inclusions by researchers and therapeutic developers which also help to contribute to the psychological and social processes of healing, not just for the victim but for the family group trying to relate to the victim’s new emotional state. All in all, In Me We Trust: A Discovery of Self After Sexual Trauma is an incredibly helpful tool in discovering the real experience of post-rape recovery, for victims and families alike.” -K.C Finn, Readers’ Favorite Book Reviewer awarding it 5 out of 5 stars
