Rejected, Shamed, and Blamed – Introductory Guide on Family Scapegoating Abuse (FSA)

Description

In this comprehensive introductory guide, the Rebecca C. Mandeville (Psychotherapist and Family Systems expert) clearly identifies family scapegoating as a form of psycho-emotional abuse while providing a means of understanding why dysfunctional families ‘reject, shame, and blame’ one of their own.  Via psycho-education, self-assessment tools, and practical steps and strategies, the abusive and traumatizing aspects of family scapegoating are clearly established while ways to dis-identify and recover from the ‘family scapegoat’ narrative are explored. ‘Links of Interest’ for further reading and education are included within each chapter and in the book’s ‘Afterword’ and  ‘Resource’ section.
