Summary

"One queer person bravely and creatively uses therapy to navigate the healing from the trauma of a past sexual assault. One day, during an ordinary early-morning run, Cara's watch dinged with a Facebook friend request. When they checked the message, the photo slammed them backward in time and froze them in fear. Their rapist wanted to 'friend' them. Cara always had a long to-do list and always was busy.But this trigger stopped them in their tracks, and they began to lose their grip on their work, projects, and relationships. Then Cara began to work with a therapist who guided them through a long and powerful process of excavating old wounds in order to heal. Along this unexpected journey, Cara found a new way forward"--Page 4 of cover.
