Has "talk" therapy not healed your trauma? Do worries keep you up at night? (Goodbye sleep!) Maybe you drag yourself to school or work. Paste on a "professional" demeanor while managing tight shoulders or a throbbing stomach ache. Are your relationships supportive? Or are you "earning" love by cheering others up or by "fixing"? Do romantic partners dump their bad moods all over you? When will it be your turn to feel loved and cared for? To have someone listen deeply to your fears or dreams without dismissing or becoming angry at you?

Are you struggling with the painful remnants of a recent break up, seeking to put an end to unhealthy relationship patterns and/or facing difficult childhood experiences holding you back from moving forward? Perhaps you're worried about seeking therapy due to cultural stigma or finding yourself at odds with cultural expectations placed on you by society? Born in India, raised in New York, I recognize the unique pressures and conflicts faced by individuals caught between two seemingly opposing cultural identities. I utilize a multicultural lens that provides a safe space to explore these internal and external sources of tension.

Sexual Abuse Therapists
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.
