Women's Safety in Recovery: Group Therapy for Patients With a History of Childhood Sexual Abuse

Nancy L. Talbot, Ph.D., Rory P. Houghtalen, M.D., Susan Cyrulik, M.S., N.P.P., Ann Betz, C.S.W. R., C.G.P., Miriam Barkun, C.S.W., Paul R. Duberstein, Ph.D. and Lyman C. Wynne, M.D., Ph.D.

The literature on group therapies for women with histories of childhood sexual abuse has focused on outpatient treatments. A model of group treatment for inpatients and partial hospital patients is described here. "Women's Safety in Recovery" is a first-stage trauma recovery group that promotes mastery of current life stressors and prevents regression through the use of psychoeducation about abuse effects, the practice of problem-solving skills, and supportive, topic-focused discussion. The group is structured in three one-week modules that patients can begin or leave at any time.
