Sexual Abuse therapists in Wilmington, North Carolina NC
Christina Andino
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
In my role as a therapist specializing in sexual abuse and trauma, I am here to assist survivors in addressing symptoms such as anxiety, depression, or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The therapeutic process is a transformative journey that aids in reclaiming a sense of self-worth and propelling survivors towards post-traumatic growth.
Survivors of sexual abuse bear immense pain and trauma, often leaving enduring emotional and psychological scars. Therapy emerges as a potent tool, enabling survivors to embark on a healing path and regain control over their lives.
Within the therapeutic space, survivors find a safe and supportive environment to process their experiences, validate their emotions, and develop coping strategies. Through this process, survivors gain a deeper understanding of the impact of abuse on their mental health, build resilience, and acquire the skills to establish healthy boundaries. The aim is to empower survivors on their journey towards healing and recovery.
