Healing Sex: A Mind-Body Approach to Healing Sexual TraumaThe first encouraging, sex-positive guide for all women survivors of sexual assault -- heterosexual, bisexual, lesbian, coupled, and single -- who want to reclaim their sex lives. While most books on the topic broach sexuality only to reassure women that it is all right to say "no" to unwanted sex, Healing Sex encourages women to learn how to say "yes" -- to their own desires and on their own terms. This mind-body approach to healing from sexual trauma was created by Staci Haines, who has been educating in the area of sexual abuse, sex education, and somatic healing for over 15 years. Her techniques are ideal for anyone looking for a new way to heal from trauma, beyond traditional talk therapy. |

Then I'll touch on the current integration of somatics into the field of psychology and what we need to be careful about as this is happening. Somatics is just now being institutionalized, and how this is done during these next years ...
Psychology also actively discourages touch, which is often associated with sex, sexual harassment, and the misuse of power within the therapeutic relationship, or inappropriate boundaries generating unnecessary com- plications.
I felt a lot of shame and guilt. Am I allowed pleasure? IfI like sex now, does it mean I wanted the abuse? Can I be the one who says what kind of touch and sex I want? I continued to release the trauma from my body.
I want to enjoy touching myself. • I want my body back, all the way. • I want pleasure and being present in my sex life to be the norm, instead of fear and checking out. • I want to have sex in the ways I am interested in.
