This book is about the influence of twenty years of work in the field of incest on a therapist's professional and personal life.

The author shares, in unadulterated prose, her experience as an incest therapist. This important, courageous work touches upon issues important to and resonant for mental health professionals treating incest and sexual abuse as well as the incest survivor or survivor's family member.
