Sexual abuse is a profound violation of an individual's autonomy and trust, encompassing any unwanted sexual contact or behavior. It can occur in various contexts and can affect people of all ages, genders, and backgrounds. Survivors may experience a range of emotional and psychological effects, including trauma, anxiety, depression, and feelings of shame or isolation. It's important to understand that the responsibility for sexual abuse lies solely with the abuser, and survivors are not to blame for what has happened to them. Support from trusted friends, family, or professional counselors can be critical in the healing process. Resources, such as hotlines and support groups, are available to provide guidance and assistance for those affected. Recovery is possible, and reaching out for help is a courageous and vital step toward reclaiming one’s life and well-being.

Joan Samuel-Dennis, Ph.D
Registered Psychotherapist, RN-Psychotherapist
Sexual abuse is one of the deepest wounds a child can carry. To survive, many children learn to dissociate—disconnecting from their bodies and emotions just to endure. The impacts reach far into adulthood, shaping relationships, self-worth, and one’s sense of safety in the world.
In my practice, sexual abuse is recognized as one of the greatest violations a child can endure. Healing must address not only the harm done to the body, but also the ways the child’s mind develops protective patterns—such as dissociation, self-blame, or hypervigilance—to survive. These patterns, while once necessary, can later keep survivors locked in cycles of pain and disconnection if left unhealed.
Beyond the physical and emotional harm, sexual abuse also creates what many call a soul wound—a rupture at the very core of identity. Survivors may feel disconnected from who they truly are, carrying grief, shame, and a sense of being unworthy or unlovable. At the same time, abuse often leads to a moral injury, where betrayal by someone who should have offered protection leaves a lasting fracture in trust, values, and the belief in one’s own goodness. Together, these injuries reach into the deepest layers of the self, making healing feel both urgent and complex.
Using The Becoming Method®, we work gently to honour your truth, release the trauma carried in the body, soothe the mind’s intrusive memories, and help the soul and spirit reconnect with worth, peace, and divine purpose. Healing is not about forgetting what happened—it is about remembering who you are beyond the harm: whole, loved, and unbroken.

Ps. I Love You Psychotherapy | M. Caracciolo Professional Corporation
Registered Psychotherapist, HBEd, MA (Hons.), Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), C-DBT
Sexual abuse treatment for survivors and Sex offender treatment is different than other types of therapy for adults. Treatment for people who have sexually abused a child is a serious and encouraging process. Typically, it focuses on learning specialized strategies for stopping abusive behavior, being accountable, and taking responsibility for harm done. For persons who experience sexual abuse treatment is based on a compassionate, trauma, and emotionally focused lens. I often use DBT in these cases as well.
