Who is Virginia Woolf from A Shining Affliction: A Story of Harm and Healing in Psychotherapy and what is their importance?

Annie felt a special relationship with the female writer because Woolf herself was molested as a young child. Woolf also described her life as being full of non-being, a sensation with which Annie was very familiar. Like Annie, Woolf also spent most of her life searching for the love of a mother and was unable to find anyone who could give her the type of love that she desired.
