REVIEWS:
"Acceptance Groups For Survivors" is a clearly written user friendly guide that asks all the right questions. I believe that it can, when used by a skilled facilitator, successfully help survivors of brain injury and other serious trauma come back to a meaningful and functional life.

Dear Ms. Bauser:
I was glad that you came over to introduce yourself. Your book is most interesting. Clearly, you worked and thought hard about issues of acceptance and how to foster that precious "Commodity" among persons with TBI. I hope that professionals will be able to test your proposed ideas in their clinical work.Yehuda Ben-Yishay, Ph.D.

Nancy Bauser's book "Acceptance Groups for Survivors" is a well organized, intelligently tough but compassionately realistic guide for professionals leading groups of survivors of brain injury and other disabilities.
Politically correct victimhood rhetoric is conspicuously absent in her writing. Instead, she gives us a healing breath of fresh air, pure mental-emotional oxygen, for the survivors, their families, and friends.
Her clarity and spare, pithy style I found startling at times, and her focused, refreshing honesty in dealing with key issues for group members penetrated through irrelevancies like a laser.
Clearly, this is not a "library researched" book. Nancy Bauser has lived this. Which explains her book's unmistakable ring of authenticity.

"Nancy Bauser, MSW. ACSW recently published the book, Acceptance Groups for Survivors: A Guide for Facilitators. She has designed a 24-session program in which people with brain injuries or other disabilities can explore challenges and limitations with which they are faced and reach an acceptance of their changed life. The guide outlines topics and questions for each session and is a excellent resource for rehabilitation professionals."

I have observed the benefits of this program first hand applied to many of our patients in group setting. The results were fantastic.
