The Domestic Violence Survival Workbook - Self-Assessments, Exercises & Educational Handouts (Mental Health & Life Skills Workbook Series)

If you’re dealing with true narcissism this is a great informative book. When you first realize what you’re dealing you have a huge appetite for knowledge and understanding. This will help.

I am a therapist at a domestic and sexual violence shelter and I love this workbook. I occasionally utilize the material in it for my weekly support group or individually.

While I do appreciate the formation, this was free information that was put together and a fee was slapped on it. It is well put together, but I expected more than the usual or free information. I would not recommend purchasing this if you have the time and skill to use free information that has always been available for advocates and survivors.

Using in therapy

I've used this with some of my clients and I love it!

This is an extremely valuable tool for use in a group or individually. There are dozens of printable check-lists and self-evaluation work sheets that save time and allow clients to see themselves in a stark new light. Clients' eyes are suddenly opened and progress toward healing takes a giant leap forward.

Excellent resource when working with domestic violence survivors. Has an understandable format with excercises that can be completed with detail by any survivor regardless of education. It's about their life experiences and fulfills their need to be heard.

I work at at domestic violence shelter and we use this book frequently in support groups. It has assessments and information and just is an all around great resource.
