If you’re a survivor of sexual harm, recovering your sexuality is possible. You are worthy of good care. The toxic effects of sexual trauma and abuse can be devastating and lasting. Victims’ ability to experience healthy sexuality, even if they free themselves from the abuse, is often shattered. If sexual abuse, violence, or coercive control is part of your story, certified sex addiction therapist (CSAT) and trauma specialist Tabitha Westbrook wants you to know: you are not alone, and healing is possible.

In Body & Soul, Healed & Whole, Tabitha draws on her specialized expertise, her own personal story of abuse, and a deep knowledge of Scripture to create a safe and compassionate place for you to start recovering—or even finding—the healthy sexuality God intended for you.

With honest wisdom and empathetic understanding, Body & Soul, Healed & Whole will help you discover how to:

Process your story of abuse—whether it occurred as a child, within marriage, or by someone in a position of power—without shame.

Develop healthy relationships with God, with yourself, and with others (including those of the opposite sex).

Reconnect with your good body and establish a foundation for healthy sexuality, whether currently married or single.

Identify and address any spiritual abuse that may have taken place within sexually abusive relationships.

Understand what arousal structures are, how they’re formed and distorted by abuse, and how to shift them when needed for healing.

Incorporate practical skills for self-care during your healing process.

Sexuality does not have to be forever broken. Rest assured in a God who understands and loves you in the deepest of deep ways—and begin your journey toward wholeness, restoration, and healing.
