Abstract

[This concluding chapter considers a psychodynamic counseling response to intrapsychic struggles stemming from childhood sexual abuse, molestation, incest, rape, partner violence, and to a cultural context that normalizes these offenses. The discussion details the traumatic sequelae (aftereffects) of intimate violence and brings trauma theory into conversation with Kohutian ideas on the use of empathy to work through traumatic transference and shame. I close out the chapter with a discussion of how to engage Black women’s spirituality as a resource in therapeutic conversations.]
