Description
This book presents a comprehensive overview of pelvic and sexual pain disorders in women and equips therapists to treat these issues in a culturally sensitive way, in particular examining the link between unwanted sexual experiences and the development of sexual pain in later life.
"This is a MUST READ for all mental and health care providers that take care of women with pelvic or sexual pain – any provider that truly wants to make a difference in their patient or client’s life."
Lynn Wang, MD, FACOG, CSC, CSE; Main Line Health, PA, USA
"An essential read for any provider who works with people experiencing intimate pain or with a history of trauma. The combination of research, medical explanations and poignant patient stories creates a great primer for a very complex and important topic."
Dana Shanis, MD, FACOG. Ob/Gyn and Owner of VHealth & Wellness, Philadelphia, PA, USA
"Davidson confronts the normalization of women’s sexual pain, pelvic pain and trauma and its profound impact on a woman’s quality of life. She unpacks the layers of a woman’s pelvic pain journey that too often go unseen or are dismissed. Boldly naming the many ways women are underserved and failed by their institutional systems, this book provides a strong call-to-action for institutions and professionals, along with a comprehensive and proven interdisciplinary treatment approach, to help women heal from trauma, pain and cultural betrayal."
