Sexual Abuse
Lisa Sanfilippo
Therapist, MA, MSc, UKCP, MBACP
Early in life, if someone or something interferes in our sexual development it can make us feel fearful, confused, ashamed, overly-sexualised or afraid of intimacy. And it is far more common than you'd think. Working with sexual abuse means working gently and delicately at your pace, sometimes not discussing the content of past events, but understanding how the after-effects have distorted our reactions today- and healing from there. I take a gentle, measured approach, helping you to heal somatically, mentally, emotionally and even spiritually. My approach is informed by principles of somatic experiencing and Polyvagal Theory.

Jimi Katsis
Counsellor/Therapist, MA psych, Dip SW
Experiencing sexual abuse can be a traumatic and life-altering event, and it can have a significant impact on an individual's mental and emotional well-being. As a therapist, I specialize in helping individuals who have been affected by sexual abuse.
I use evidence-based therapies such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT), and Dialectical Behaviour therapy (DBT) which have been proven to be effective in treating the effects of sexual abuse.
CBT is a form of therapy that helps individuals identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors that may be contributing to their emotional distress. TF-CBT is a specific type of CBT that is designed to help individuals who have experienced traumatic events such as sexual abuse.
In therapy sessions, we will work together to understand the dynamics of the abuse, and develop strategies to help you process and heal from the trauma. I will also help you to set realistic goals and work towards a positive future.
Sexual abuse can be a difficult and overwhelming experience, but it is possible to heal and move forward. I am here to help you through this process, and I encourage you to reach out for help.
