Women's Spiritual Experiences in Healing From DRAWING FROM THE WELL: WOMEN’S SPIRITUAL EXPERIENCES IN HEALING FROM CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE by Jill Louise Wylie A thesis submitted to the School of Rehabilitation Therapy In conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada September, 2010 Copyright ©Jill Louise Wylie, 2010 Abstract The prevalence of child sexual abuse remains high with girls 1.5 to 3 times more likely to be victims compared to boys. In addition to psychological and emotional challenges, this abuse can lead to spiritual difficulties that impact survivors’ ability to find meaning in their life, find a sense of purpose, experience hope or believe in a world that is just. Spirituality can facilitate healing and this study contributes to that knowledge base by exploring women’s own perspectives. The purpose of this qualitative narrative study is to understand, from women’s perspectives, the role of spiritual experiences in their healing from the impacts of child sexual abuse. Spiritual experiences were defined as any experiences that have a different reality or feeling compared to our usual everyday reality that may seem extraordinary or unexplainable, or very ordinary yet meaningful. Twenty in-depth individual interviews were conducted with ten women survivors of child sexual abuse. Narrative analysis methods were used to derive key themes that represent participants’ perspectives of how spiritual experiences enhance healing. Results of this study show that spiritual experiences opened doorways to self, shifted energy, expanded perspective, revealed truths, connected to the present moment, created possibilities of the positive and were an enduring source of support and strength. Spiritual experiences create inter-connections between aspects of the self that can simultaneously transcend the self and connect to the larger world thereby unifying each into a greater whole. These impacts prevail even when there is dissonance in the interpretation. Occupations facilitated spiritual experiences by acting as a portal to a spiritual dimension, transcending language and mind, facilitating internal communication, connecting to the body through doing and through innate healing qualities. Engaging in respectful dialogue on spiritual experiences requires reflection and awareness in the use of bias-free language. Health professionals are well situated to address spiritual experiences, ii using evidence-based practice and an understanding of embodied experience. Occupational therapists have a key role in validating spiritual experiences, facilitating the engagement in spiritual occupations, and providing resources to understand and interpret the experiences. iii Acknowledgements Thank you to Laura, Joanna, Leni, Renée, Kira, Maeve, Lori, Carolyn, Amanda and Tricia for your wisdom, inspiration, courage, honesty and commitment to this study.

To the Canadian Occupational Therapy Foundation Doctoral Scholarship that provided moral and financial support for embarking on this complex study in spirituality. To Kira, my four-legged friend who made sure I kept a balance in my life by insisting that we go outside to play, walk or run. Last, but by no means least, I would like to thank my daughter Becca for her ongoing support and enthusiasm for this journey I embarked on that demanded so much of my time. You are my biggest joy and inspiration. iv Table of Contents Abstract

    ANGELS CAUGHT NAPPING: MOMENTS THAT DEFINE US by JANET MARIE DOGGETT, B.A. A THESIS IN ENGLISH Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Texas Tech University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS Approved i^h^rperson of the Committee Accepted Dean of the Graduate School May, 2003 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank my mentor and thesis advisor Jill Patterson for her kind support and encouragement and also committee member, professor and poet- extraordinaire, John Poch, who has said more than once, "It's good. It's not a poem, but it's good," Also, without the guidance and support of Dr. Jon Rossini during my first semester, I would not have remained in graduate school. This book is dedicated to my mother for understanding that it's not about blame; for my husband who reads my work and loves me anyway, and for my kids who have eaten pizza more nights than any children should. And finally, I would like to acknowledge all of the women and children with whom I worked for a period of two years as a volunteer at the Lubbock Rape Crisis Center. Their courage in the face of horror, their strength and their hope for all things better, will always resonate in my heart, move me to tell their stories, and push me to do better. 11 TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS i, CHAPTER I.
