Books

There are not many books for spouses of survivors, though most books about survivors do have a chapter about spouses can be helpful. 

Please buy your books at The Sidran Traumatic Stress Foundation whenever possible. They has several partner books: 

bulletAllies in Healing: When the Person You Love Was Sexually Abused as a Child by Laura Davis. You can read reviews of the book at Amazon.com.
bulletGhosts in the Bedroom by Ken Graber, M.A.. You can read reviews of the book at Amazon.com.

I have read books by Eliana Gil, Ph.D. and Laura Davis which were excellent, so these one should be, too. I have read the Sandra J. Hocking book and it is fine and easy to read quickly.
