FORGIVENESS
The
Realm of Whelm
One funded study described a program
of weekly therapy for incest survivors
organised around an explicit agenda of
forgiveness.
Based on very limited data, the author
claimed that learning forgiveness
produced more positive results than any
other known treatment for this
population, a judgment not generally
shared by most experts in the field of
traumatic stress.
