Sexual Abuse
Farrah Bonde
Registered Social Worker, LISW
Mental health therapy for survivors of sexual abuse plays a crucial role in the healing process, offering a safe space to process traumatic experiences and develop coping strategies. Therapeutic approaches focus on addressing the impact of abuse, including anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Farrah works with survivors to rebuild trust, enhance self-esteem, and cultivate resilience, helping them regain control over their lives. Ultimately, therapy empowers survivors to navigate their emotions, foster self-compassion, and create a path toward recovery and well-being.
