Sexual Abuse

Sexual Abuse
James C. Carpenter, PhD, ABPP
Psychologist, PhD (Clinical Psychology, Ohio State U), Board Certified in Clinical Psychology (ABPP), PSYPACT
I gradually and not too happily became an expert in treating sexual abuse -- especially early abuse in childhood -- through working intensely with so many people who have presented with those issues. I understand the suggestibility of memory, and I never suggest or over-lead clients to these possible traumas. But they often enough present themselves indisputably into therapy work as it becomes deeper and safer. I have had and given a lot of training in this area and have a big toolbox of approaches at my disposal in working on this very delicate and important material.
