HOPE...HEALING & HELP
Healing from sexual abuse is possible. The process is not easy.
But each day’s progress leads you toward transformation and healing.
I know this, having experienced this process myself. I’ve struggled with
my past of sexual abuse, and managed to go through the healing process
with courage and victory. Now, I teach others to do the same and embrace
life fully and joyfully.
In addition to the experience and the professional skills I have,
I have the three following qualities it takes to properly serve an
adult client who has been sexually abused;
– Knowledge of the long-term effects of sexual abuse
– Courage to broach the subject
– Being able to talk about sexuality without taboo

SEXUAL ABUSE & ITS LONG TERM EFFECTS

Sexual abuse can affect every aspect of adult life a.o; relationships, sexuality, and career. Many individuals who have experienced sexual abuse have significant problems dealing with authority, education, and more.

The long-term mental health effects of sexual abuse may include;

  • Suicidal ideation or attempted suicide
  • Severe distress
  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Substance use disorder
  • Increased risk of unplanned pregnancy or sexually transmitted diseases

Victims of sexual abuse often experience a variety of challenges. It touches everything. The rupture of trust and the loss of innocence can have significant ramifications.             

But there is hope…
