Healing Sex: A Mind-Body Approach to Healing Sexual Trauma – Book

Healing Sex is a guide for women survivors of sexual assault who wish to reclaim their sex lives following trauma. Written by Staci Haines, an educator with over 15 years of experience in sexual abuse, sex education, and somatic healing, the book presents a mind-body approach to recovery that extends beyond traditional talk therapy. The guide addresses heterosexual, bisexual, lesbian, coupled, and single women, and focuses on learning to affirm personal desires and boundaries. Rather than addressing sexuality only through the lens of refusal, this resource encourages survivors to reconnect with their own choices and agency. The book combines somatic techniques with practical guidance for healing from sexual trauma.
