You’ve tried to push through. You’ve read the books, listened to podcasts, maybe even told yourself it’s “not that bad.” But deep down, you know something isn’t shifting. The anxiety lingers, your confidence takes a hit, and the same patterns keep showing up in your relationships. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in survival mode, you don’t have to navigate it alone.

People seek counselling and psychotherapy for various reasons. Not everyone knows what is bothering them. Often it is the difficulties and challenges of daily life that become overwhelming and unmanageable, impacting relationships, work and decision making. It is sometimes beyond the control of the individual to address those issues without professional help.

Chartered Counselling Psychologist specialised in Anxiety, Self-Criticism & Trauma:
You might look like you're coping, but inside you're anxious, overwhelmed or exhausted from trying to keep everything together. You may overthink, doubt yourself, or feel you're never quite good enough. You may have become very good at holding things together for everyone else, while being much harder on yourself. You may find yourself caught in cycles of worry, self-criticism, perfectionism or trying to stay in control, even when these ways of coping are leaving you exhausted.

Sexual Abuse Counsellors
How do therapists treat sexual abuse?
A good therapist will be nonjudgmental and possibly demonstrate active listening, repeating back what the client says to show that they have understood. These skills allow people to feel comfortable discussing their traumatic experiences openly. Some important treatment goals are to restore a sense of safety and to rebuild confidence. In addition to working one-on-one with the patient, a therapist might bring in supportive family members to assist the client.
Do you have to talk extensively about sexual abuse in therapy?
Survivors frequently find it difficult to describe what happened to them out loud. They can even still be in a state of denial if the sexual abuse occurred recently. It is important for survivors to acknowledge that what happened isn’t their fault and to challenge and reappraise any unhealthy feelings or thoughts as they arise. Art therapy and play therapy are useful non-verbal means of communication for some survivors.
How long does treatment for sexual abuse take?
Recovery from sexual abuse can be a long and difficult process. Some survivors are able to move on naturally on their own, given time, while others require the guidance of a trained therapist. Therapy needs vary and can range from a few sessions to months or even years. Healing from sexual abuse takes time, and everyone’s journey will look a little different.
Can trauma symptoms caused by sexual abuse come back after treatment?
As occurs in many cases of trauma, survivors of sexual abuse may experience PTSD-like symptoms long after the abuse has ceased or after an initial round of treatment has occurred. In such a case, there is evidence that prolonged exposure therapy is a useful treatment for survivors, and may be more efficacious than supportive counseling alone. While triggers may continue to cause distress, the idea is that, with time and repeated exposure, their power will fade, allowing survivors to move on with their lives.
