How to heal Sexual Abuse?
Who Is The Best Therapist for Sexual Abuse in Surrey ?
Honestly, the best therapist is someone you feel comfortable with. Finding the right therapist is a lot like dating ……you may need to book several intro calls to find out whose energy feels right for you.
It’s a process, but with consistent effort, it’s absolutely achievable.
Let’s connect and see if we’re a good fit. If not, no worries at all ……. I’d be more than happy to provide referrals to someone who might be a better match for you.
1)Touching a child in a private area-This is wrong and never okay, even if someone says it’s a game or secret.
2)Forcing someone to have sex-If someone makes you do something with your body that you don’t want …..that is abuse.
3)Pressuring someone to say yes-If someone keeps asking or makes you feel guilty until you say yes……. that is not real consent.
4)When a partner forces you-Even if you're married or dating, no one has the right to force you to do anything sexual.
5)Saying rude or sexual things-Comments, jokes, or messages that make you feel uncomfortable are not okay.
6)Using someone for sex to get things-This can happen when someone is used for money, gifts, or attention in return for sex.
7)Abuse by a family member-If a family member touches you in a wrong way or makes you feel unsafe …….it’s abuse, even if they say they love you.
8)Online sexual abuse-This includes sending or asking for private pictures, messages, or videos without permission.
