Sexual Abuse therapists in Moscow, Russia RU

Sexual violence is a traumatic event that can have lasting effects on the psychological and physical health of the survivors. It can cause a range of problems, such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), low self-esteem, guilt, avoidance, and others. Therapy can help survivors cope with their trauma and heal from its impact. I work with this topic in two formats. 1. If sexual violence has triggered PTSD. The diagnosis of PTSD must be made by a psychiatrist. I work with PTSD in the protocol of Prolonged Exposure (PE). PE is a form of cognitive-behavioral therapy that involves gradually confronting the traumatic memories and situations that cause fear and distress. It helps survivors reduce their symptoms and regain control over their lives. WARNING: Sessions in PE format last 90 minutes (instead of the standard 50). 2. If sexual violence has not triggered PTSD, but has formed such psychological problems as low self-esteem, guilt, avoidance, and others. I work with this topic in the format of schema therapy techniques. Schema therapy is a form of integrative therapy that combines cognitive, behavioral, experiential, and interpersonal approaches. It helps survivors identify and modify their maladaptive schemas, which are deep-rooted beliefs and patterns that affect their emotions and behaviors. It also helps survivors develop healthy coping skills and meet their emotional needs.
