book review.
Dari Dryness-Olsen, MA, LPC, owner of Express Yourself Today, LLC, a counseling center in New Jersey, empowers young women in the quest for self esteem, safe dating and healthy relationships. The book, “Safe Dating for College Women” interactively encourages young women to put their health, academics and safety at the forefront of their college experience.
Each chapter has multiple pages where young women can journal the answers to questions related to the topic, enabling them to see the choices they are making in life and the impact those choices may have. The book is relevant to both heterosexual and lesbian women, and makes reference to same sex relationships and parenting. Positive connections and self worth is the main focus for this guide and does not go unnoticed. While dating tips and precautions are dueling noted, you will walk away from this book with viable ways to love and respect yourself, two things oftentimes difficult for first year college students and young women as a whole. Each chapter highlights a “secret” to such things as building self esteem, recognizing dating abuse and focusing on safe fun. With a new world at their fingertips, and new experiences around every corner, “Safe Dating for College Women” is a great first step in making the right choices that will inevitably effect any woman’s college experience and ultimately her life experience.
