Sexual Abuse
Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
Because I have a speciality in trauma processing therapies, folks with past abuse can often find real relief in working through the implications of trauma-not just the memories of these experiences but how the body does indeed "keep the score". Trauma work needs to include both strong relational rapport, education about how trauma impacts on all levels of functioning and processing therapies such as EMDR or Deep Brain Reorienting to assist with deep healing.

Sexual Abuse
Jennifer Cain
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Sexual abuse is a severe breach of trust and safety that can leave a person with long term trauma symptoms and effects. If you have experienced sexual abuse, you are probably experiencing a number of problems that feel like they will never be resolved. But there is hope, and recovery is possible. I will work with you to process through this trauma and regain yourself and your sense of safety. I use a variety of strategies, including art, EMDR, and somatic strategies, that do not require you to describe the specifics of what happened, if you don't want to.

New York City has one of the largest and most diverse therapy communities in the world, with practitioners representing virtually every therapeutic modality, cultural background, and specialty area. The city's pace, density, and cost of living generate pervasive anxiety and burnout, while its diverse boroughs mean therapists fluent in dozens of languages serve communities from every corner of the globe. Columbia University Irving Medical Center, NYU Langone Health, and Weill Cornell Medicine anchor an extensive academic mental health infrastructure, supplemented by thousands of independent practitioners across Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island. New York's therapy culture is deeply embedded — many residents maintain years-long therapeutic relationships and consider finding the right therapist one of the more important decisions they make.
