One of the most neglected issues for women in recovery from addiction and trauma is sexuality. With candor and compassion, Dr. Covington reminds readers that recovery "is about living life fully and completely, and sexual recovery is integral to the fullness of your life." Awakening Your Sexuality gives women the tools to process their sexual histories, understand their sexual selves, and create the fulfilling sexual lives they want. Honest, sensitive case studies and relevant exercises provide gentle, step-by-step guidance to help women confront guilt, shame, and addiction; become aware of their body images and behavioral patterns; honor and accept their pasts; and begin the liberating journey of sexual recovery and growth.

Helping Men Recover, Community Version Set

A group therapy program for treating addiction tailored to the unique needs of women and written by the expert who designed the Women's Treatment Program at the Betty Ford Center. Brief Description: This program for treating addiction is designed especially for women. The program consists of two components: 1) the Facilitator's Guide, written for the practitioner running substance abuse groups for women, and 2) A Woman's Journal, a personal guide for the recovering woman to use outside of the group. This program is groundbreaking in its recognition of the special needs of women in recovery. Programs for treating substance abuse have traditionally been based on studies done with men, but men's and women's issues with addiction often derive from very different life experiences. Women's substance abuse is typically related to psychological trauma stemming from emotional, physical, and/or sexual abuse, and any successful recovery program needs to deal openly with women's issues of trauma. The program is organized into four modules that reflect the major areas in a woman's life that need attention for recovery to happen: Self, Relationships, Sexuality, and Spirituality. Everything in this program is carefully guided for easy and comfortable use by the practitioner and the participants. For every group session, the Facilitator's Guide offers a Session Overview as well as an actual script with suggested language the practitioner can use if he/she chooses while running the group. A Woman's Journal includes self-tests, checklists, questions and answers, exercises, and guidelines, which the participants work through on their own outside of the group sessions. A Special Edition, with the same two components, is available for use in the Criminal Justice system. An alarming 85% of women in prison have issues related to substance abuse, and this program will be embraced by administrators of correctional facilities who increasingly need support for addressing the issues of women's addiction. Closely adapted from the community version, the Special Edition adjusts the Sexuality module in particular so that it is appropriate in tone and content to the correctional setting.

Helping Women Recover, Community Journal, (A Workbook Program for Treating Addiction, sold separately and with the package)

A Step-by-Step Guide to a Powerful Process for Healing Women with Addiction While there is a wealth of material available for the treatment of addiction, most of the information is based on research focused on men-not women. Helping Women Recover fills this void and offers a program specifically designed to meet the unique needs of women who are addicted to alcohol and other drugs. The Helping Women Recover program offers counselors, mental health professionals, and program administrators the tools they need to implement this healing process in group therapy settings or with individual clients. "A clear and comprehensive guide. Covington provides addiction professionals with a precise and detailed curriculum based on her knowledge, caring, and years of experience addressing the special needs of addicted women."—Monessa Overby, vice president, clinical services, Betty Ford Center "An excellent tool for integrating women's issues with relapse prevention therapy. Helping Women Recover is practical, easy to use, and helps guide clinicians to work on the deeper recovery issues with addicted women."—Terence T. Gorski, founder, clinical director, National Relapse Prevention Certification School "A well-written, thorough, eminently practical, and wise curriculum for all women-therapists and clients, teachers and students. She combines a deep understanding of female psychology with the realities of male-oriented culture to create a supportive model that emphasizes positive self-exploration and discovery. Covington provides a detailed teaching map-what to say, when, and why. Novice and experienced counselors can run with this outstanding plan. Underlying the text is the assurance that the author understands women, what safety means to them, how important it is as a base for healing, and how to achieve it."—Stephanie Brown, director, The Addictions Institute and author of Treating Alcoholism "A comprehensive, practical, and extraordinarily valuable guide for anyone involved in creating, implementing, or facilitating women's treatment programs."—Janet L. Surrey, founding scholar, Jean Baker Miller Training Institute, Stone Center, Wellesley College "Helping Women Recover is vital to our work with the chemically dependent female-and there is no one who understands gender-specific work better than Stephanie Covington!" —Claudia Black, author of It Will Never Happen to Me "Helping Women Recover is an exciting curriculum for women in which the facilitator is given clear and detailed instructions. To participate in these sessions would be a healing and revealing experience."—Anne Geller, associate professor of clinical medicine, Columbia University and past president, American Society of Addiction Medicine
