ABSTRACT
This chapter finds that ten important and progressive steps are necessary in the survivor treatment process. Sexual molestation does not simply go away nor does it cure itself. Trained, professional intervention is necessary for a minimum of a short, limited amount of time in the recovery process of some survivors and for a great deal of time in the recovery process of other survivors. In addition to the primary feelings and emotions, the therapist must make sure that all other associated or attached feelings and emotions are also ventilated. In addition, there is a major difference in peer reaction to an exposed molestation. In the United States more than in any other country, the damaging and destructive phrase 'making love' has been used due to embarrassment or puritanical needs to justify or explain sexual behaviour. A major resistance to any personal value change is the presence of unresolved subjective-judgment memories.
