Kinsler, Philip J.2005-10-112005-10-111995-060896-2863https://hdl.handle.net/1794/1602p. 100-103Psychotherapists who work with abuse survivors are continually confronted with basic questions about human existence. Every day we must ponder what makes life worth living; how people can go on after the most horrifying experiences; when and whether the pain is ever so great that it is OK for a human being to take his own life; and the question of good and evil. It is the author's experience that therapists do not often write about their struggle with these questions. They are shared in private quiet moments with closely valued colleagues and family. What follows is one therapist's struggle to cope with these questions, set off by a particularly difficult set of clinical and personal experiences.180830 bytesapplication/pdfen-USArticle
