Description
Working with Survivors of Sibling Sexual Abuse: A Guide to Therapeutic Support and Protection for Children and Adults by Christiane Sanderson provides a rigorous account of this often-overlooked form of child sexual abuse. The author sheds light on the nature and dynamics of sibling sexual abuse, highlighting the impact on both the victim and the perpetrator within the family setting.
This book offers a clear explanation of the difference between normal, developmentally appropriate exploration and non-consensual, harmful behaviour. It explores how these behaviours affect not only the individual being harmed but also the wider family and adult survivors. A valuable resource for professionals working with individuals or families affected by sibling sexual abuse, this guide is essential reading for anyone involved in assessment, support, safeguarding, or treatment.
