Sexual abuse reveals a devastating breach of trust that can profoundly impact an individual's sense of self and relationships. Sexual abuse can cause profound emotional wounds that last a lifetime since it is based on the intricate dynamics of power and vulnerability. It can also destroy the foundation of stable attachment ties. Therapy becomes a sanctuary for healing, offering a safe space to navigate the complexities of trauma, process the echoes of past violations, and reclaim agency over one's body and identity. By fostering compassionate connections and addressing the root causes of distress, survivors can embark on a journey of empowerment, resilience, and reclaiming a sense of safety and wholeness in their lives.
