Well, as I'm a strong advocate of regressive therapies which DO work and have the power to change you in a fundamental way, I can only advise you to try it out.
It's not for the faint of heart but it will transform you, although there are no miracles - it's a long process and the degrees of change are different for different people.
Again I would suggest reading Arthur Janov's books. They are an eye-opening experience. Alice Miller's books are also very good, although she isn't really into regressive therapy - she tried it once, when it was still in its infancy with rather bad results. My favorite Alice Miller books are:
"Thou Shalt Not Be Aware""
The second one being perfect for csa victims. It also contains a powerful critique of traditional psychotherapy.
Try googling "primal therapy" but avoid all pages that use the term "primal scream therapy". Those who use that phrase do it because they are either ignorant (and why would you want to read something written by someone who doesn't know what they are talking about?) or deliberately misleading and hostile.
You cannot go wrong with John Speyrer's webpage:
It was a wealth of information on regressive therapies.
Just some food for thought... :)
