"In light of the #MeToo movement, psychologist Engel provides women with hope, comfort, and a number of preventative strategies in reacting to and recovering from sexual assault....This comprehensive book supplies women and interested general readers with everything they need to know, from healing after childhood abuse to ending sexual harassment. Essential for all women." —Library Journal, STARRED Review “Beverly Engel knows how hard it can be to speak your truth when it comes to assaults on women, and in her new self-help book, she aims to help women who have fallen victim to these crimes. I’m Saying No! provides a guide for those who are too afraid to speak up and get the justice they deserve.” —Parade, "10 Life-Changing Self-Help Books Every Woman Should Read in 2019" “I’m Saying No! serves as an empowering guide for women as they learn how to own their ‘No!” Beverly empowers readers to stand up against sexual assault, sexual harassment, and sexual pressure, while equipping them with practical tools to do so. The author pulls from her three decades of experience as a licensed psychotherapist and advocate for victims to help women both build their courage and find their voice. Through well-researched explanations, real-life stories from clients, and helpful guides, Engel builds on the momentum of #MeToo and #TimesUp by encouraging readers to speak out." —Fupping.com, "8 Definitive Books on Feminism and Its Struggle" "Engel’s tone is chatty and empowering as she reminds victims that they can move past an assault, and encourages all women to become comfortable at expressing anger . . . The book does a good job of presenting strategies to develop self-awareness, recognize potential threats, and get out of problematic situations. A useful guide to combating sexual violence and raising women’s self-esteem." —Kirkus Reviews “Beverly provides much-needed strategies, information, and support for every woman who has or is still being traumatized by any kind of sexual misconduct, whether it is in the workplace or elsewhere. I strongly recommend it for all women no matter their age or circumstances.” —Gretchen Carlson, television journalist, best-selling author of Be Fierce and empowerment advocate “This book is an excellent resource that helps women who have experienced sexual assault, sexual harassment, and sexual pressure to use their voice to speak truth and take a stand. An empowering book that I highly recommend.” —Raychelle Cassada Lohmann, author of The Sexual Trauma Workbook for Teen Girls “In her latest book, Engel provides readers with useful guidance for saying no to would-be sexual abusers and encourages readers to practice what it feels like to use those two simple but imperfect letters—N-O!—a skill that benefits people of all ages." —Holly Kearl, founder of Stop Street Harassment “It’s easy enough to tell women to 'say no' but, in reality, there is nothing easy about saying no if you are a woman. Engel’s book doesn’t only shed light on why this remains true, even in the age of MeToo and TimesUp, but it provides readers with critical, pragmatic tools and strategies designed to confront and report gender harassment, sexual assault, and childhood abuse effectively.” —Soraya Chemaly, author of Rage Becomes Her: The Power of Women’s Anger
