What people are saying about Women Healing from Abuse:
Esprit: The magazine of Evangelical Lutheran Women,Inc.
"I recommend this book for women on their healing journeys, whether or not they belong to a faith tradition.... Although the target audience is women, men would also benefit by reading this book, recognizing themselves in the human story of abuse and healing. Thank you to Nicole for writing a book which is both timely and leads us towards more understanding, love and peace for ourselves as we heal." -Laurie Massaro Berg
New Women/New Church, Spring 2007
"It is a gentle, practical invitation to women from the Christian tradition to use spiritual resources to overcome the devastating affects of violence. Nicole wisely draws on the work of Judith Herman (Trauma and Recovery. NY: Basic Books, 1992) to outline three stages of healing: safety, remembrance and mourning, and reconnection. She lays out a four-week process that readers can use for their healing.... It is all geared to help the survivor deal with the injustice of violence by accessing the deep resources of one religious tradition. I daresay it will help many women." -Mary Hunt, Ph.D. Co-Director of WATER:Women's Alliance for Theology, Ethics and Ritual
