Sexual Abuse
Rakan Himadeh
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, ISP Candidate
Experiences of sexual abuse can leave deep imprints in the body and nervous system, often long after the event is over. Somatic Experiencing (SE) and Integral Somatic Psychology (ISP) offer a gentle, trauma-informed way to work with the effects of sexual trauma without having to retell or relive the story. SE helps rebuild a sense of safety in the body by slowly releasing stored survival responses such as freeze, shutdown, or hypervigilance. ISP complements this by supporting the safe processing of emotions like fear, shame, or confusion, helping you stay connected to yourself without becoming overwhelmed. Together, these approaches help restore boundaries, self-trust, and a sense of agency, allowing healing to unfold at a pace that honors your system

Sexual Abuse
Transforming Emotions
Psychologist
Sadly, sexual abuse still too often hides in the shadows. Individuals of all genders and sexual orientations often feel compelled to hide their pain from places of shame, self-blame, or fear. Too often, survivors of sexual abuse have not been believed, or have been silenced for others' comfort or in the service of preserving the status quo. At Transforming Emotions, our trauma-informed therapists are ready to help support you through the painful work of healing and recovery at a pace that works for you. We start with a focus on personal safety and building trust with your therapist. Next steps include reducing feelings of shame and and fear, and proceeding to process any memories that haunt you while understanding that those truly responsible for sexual abuse are those who perpetrate it. We end with helping you integrate a new, calmer, more confident and grounded sense of self, helping you live more truly in the present rather than being tethered to the past. Reach out today to help us better understand your unique needs. We will share our recommendations for therapists who may be the best match for you, and we will provide access to a free 20 minute consultation with team members you may be interested in working with allowing you to tell us which team member feels like the right fit for you. Contact us today to take your next step towards healing.
