As a child, Kate Price was physically and sexually abused by her father, who also trafficked her to other men. Her memories of that time were fragmentary until, as an adult, she went through therapy with psychiatrist Bessel van der Kolk, who wrote about her case in his best-selling book “The Body Keeps the Score.”
Now Price has published her memoir “This Happened to Me: A Reckoning.” She speaks with host Robin Young about the book.
