Descrizione |
Adult Clergy Sexual Abuse: A Roadmap for Reporting, Recovery, and Reclaiming Your Autonomy is a compassionate, trauma-informed guide for survivors, advocates, and faith leaders. Written by Nathaniel J. Patrick, it explains how spiritual authority can be weaponized in relationships that are legally and ethically fiduciary rather than consensual. The book dissects the stages of grooming, exposes institutional betrayal and DARVO tactics, and offers practical advice on documenting abuse, engaging with legal and ecclesiastical systems, and communicating with loved ones. Through reflective questions, survivor affirmations, and a comprehensive appendix of tools and templates, it equips readers to report misconduct, protect their well-being, and reclaim their spiritual and personal autonomy.
