Publisher's Summary

Unlock The Door - Beyond Sexual Abuse illuminates thirty-nine stories of personal strength, courage, and resiliency. The author vividly captures the traumatic and lifelong effects of sexual abuse in her in-depth interviews. Topics include: Family Secrets, Trusted Others, To Punish-To-Protect, A Time To Heal, Advocacy and the audiobook also includes songs, about sexual abuse, written by the author. 

The way to begin resolving trauma is to talk about it, to bring it to the light of day. As one of the contributors in Unlock The Door states, "When one person's words flow and another person listens, magic happens." In this book people speak and we, the audience, listens. And we must listen. 

Best-selling author Gabor Maté M.D. wrote the powerful foreword. The main theme in the book is the focus on healing and moving beyond victimization as well as educating others about this devastating social issue. Survivors of sexual abuse often feel isolated and alone, Unlock The Door gives a voice to those who have not yet spoken, by allowing us to remember that we are not alone. 

"Deb Maybury provides validation and hope to survivors whose lives, through no fault of their own, have been shaken body and soul. Her writing is terse, her point sharp and abundantly clear. Victims need a justice system that better serves their needs and more services capable of supporting their journey to wellness." (Dr. Fred Matthews, Psychologist)
