Rape
Recovery Video Program
“I
know
that
more
time
and
more
pleasure
in life
are
two
of the
things
you
really
try
to help
your
clients
with
in this
video
but
I learned
so much
more!
After
four
years
in therapy,
I had
serious
doubts
that
I’d
ever
be happy
again
– until
I finished
your
recovery
video.
I
learned
more
in that
2½ hours
than
in many,
many
therapy
hours
– practical
information
that
I use.You
know,
the
price
of your
recovery
video
program
was
less
than
a pair
of my
kid’s
sneakers.”

“Your videos are so engaging and so personal – I felt like you were talking just to me; almost as if I were with a friend, just sharing. Only you’re a friend who has succeeded in doing what I need to do to be happy.” “Thank you; I won’t forget the times we “shared” or what I learned in this video. You’ve saved my life!” Kerri M.
The Truth About Rape Book
Incredibly well written, sensitive and
informative; your book is fantastic.
Aphrodite Matsakis, Ph.D., Clinical
Psychologist
My group had a very
emotional and growth promoting process as I shared with them your book. We
launched into an incredible dialogue about all of the feelings and thoughts and
energy that does not get discussed in this culture about rape.

Kreifels, LCSW
Thank you Teresa for your
insight, sensitivity and certainty your honesty. This book is a tool for
everyone, victim, survivor, family and friends can all benefit from the insight
and information provided. This book not only acknowledges the tremendous
emotional and physical impact rape has on a woman but it reminds us of our
capacities to endure and rise above. Peace can be obtained!
Samantha
S., Sexual Assault Survivor & Victim Advocate
I am in awe of how you have recovered and that you're helping others; I will use your book in the work I'm doing with my therapist. Thank you; it is what I need to heal and I'm sure I speak for others as well. Sheila Brook, Victim Advocate
Your frankness is almost overwhelming yet so necessary. People need to understand what happens when a woman is raped and you’ve so beautifully related the feelings. Your words made me feel as if I was on that mattress with you … in your bathroom … on the train. Your words are mesmerizing. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Sharon Fitzpatrick
Hours
of Torture, Years of Silence Book
In Hours of Torture, Years of Silence, Teresa provides the
precious gift of the
unbearable truth of her experience. Her story evokes compassion and a yearning
for justice and rings with authenticity, a most valuable contribution. She has
transformed horror into the service of humanity - true art. This book would be
on my required reading list for graduate students and therapists alike. What a
victory she has won!
Dennis N. Hinkle, Ph.D., Clinical
Psychologist
When I found this book, I was first of all amazed that this author would be able to write her experience in the fullness she could, to reach inside and be able to describe what torture and pain "felt" like. ... Teresa helped me find within myself a new pathway of healing. Her abilities of expression in writing, as well as her description of the torture and what it did to her, were frightening, yet she caused me to go on, instead of turn inside. A must read for not only those of rape, violence, and torture, but as well, for clinicians who practice Psychology in helping survivors heal. Debbie Spicer, R.N.
Teresa completely
captured the essence of how a rape victim suffers. I have a much better
understanding and deeper empathy for my clients who have experienced rape and
who are suffering from PTSD.
