Publisher's Summary
**NEXT GENERATION INDIE AWARDS FINALIST FOR INSPIRATIONAL NON-FICTION**
I thought he was there to help me heal, but his office became my prison.
Prayed Upon is the story of one woman's escape from the abuse of a respected, church-going psychiatrist. Amy reaches out to Dr. Dolion for help with depression, but instead of providing healing, he leads her down a path of deception and betrayal. His office, which initially feels like a sanctuary, becomes a psychological prison from which Amy must fight to free herself. Prayed Upon, a true story depicts Amy's journey from victim to thriving child of God. Her brutal honesty provides an inside look at the warped beliefs that early abuse instills; beliefs that make adult victims vulnerable to sexual predators. Her story shines a light on the under-reported sexual abuse of adults and ultimately the way victims can gain freedom from the bondage of shame that abuse leaves behind.
Critic Reviews
Next Generation Indie Awards Finalist for Inspirational Non-fiction
Winner of the Inspire Christian Writers' "Great Openings” Contest
"Nordhues' writing is brilliant and stayed with me long after I finished reading her book. A disturbing, unforgettable, heart-wrenching, beautiful story of one woman's unimaginable suffering, and the healing power of Christ." (Kathryn Inman, author of Counting Spoons: A Memoir of Heroin, Heartache and Hope)
"Amy Nordhues has written a triumph of a book. She takes her reader behind closed doors and makes the experience of being groomed by a predator, painfully real. An important book, beautifully written and profoundly compelling." (Analie Shepherd, author of Mending the Shattered Mirror)
