Link to the Alan Corbett interview.
Psychotherapist Alan Corbett has written a book about what he calls ‘the invisible men’, men who have experienced sexual trauma, either in childhood or in adult life.
He talks to Jane about why so few men are able to reveal the awful experiences they’ve endured, the toxic effects of sexual abuse not only on male survivors but on partners and children as well, and the difference long term therapy can make for some men.
