Description: These are just a few of the questions and challenges facing women who have left abusive relationships. While many books exist telling women how to get out of abusive relationships, until now, no book has addressed the emotional and practical needs of women who have actually left and are trying to re-build their lives. It's My Life Now is a compassionate, comprehensive guide for all formerly abused women seeking to repair their self-esteem and move on with their lives. The authors show women how to manage their feelings and assess their safety. Worksheets help readers monitor their progress and 'self-exploration' exercises facilitate the crucial process of rebuilding self-esteem and self-trust. Lifesaving tips on everything from dealing with the needs of children to scheduling stressful thoughts and learning what to look for and what to avoid in future mates help make this book a working manual for women starting their lives over.

Written in reassuring accessible language by two authors, one a renowned therapist the other, and eminent professor of psychology. It's My Life Now is an invaluable roadmap in the process of healing for survivors of domestic abuse and the people who love them.
