Sexual Abuse Therapists in Jena, Germany

I have worked extensively in this area and appreciate the courage and struggles involved in therapy for sexual abuse. I aim to work sensitively with you to deshame, process and empower.

I help people over come and understand their trauma so that they can have a healthier connection with their own body and create lasting meaningful relationships going forward.

If you have or are experiencing sexual abuse, it is very important to get help. You need to get out of this situation and/ or heal from the damage done. People that were sexually abused may be traumatized and suffer from dissociation (part of you goes away), flashbacks (images and/or physical and emotional reactions are triggered involuntarily) and other symptoms that can make your life difficult and hinder you to experience positive sexual encounters. This affects you and your relationships and can be helped. Don’t hesitate, especially if this is ongoing. Get help quickly and start your better life. If you are a person who abuses a child or any other person, part of you may justify this with different excuses and even claim it wasn’t abuse. If there is a part, maybe the best in you, that knows what you are doing is not ok, then get help as soon as possible. Change is possible, also for you.

Having experienced and overcome the trauma and side effects of sexual abuse, and having studied accordingly, I can hold space for and help women and men with issues of sexual abuse, whether or not you remember things clearly. As with emotional abuse, there are many subtle ways that this can occur in all sorts of relationships. You can be sure that we will address your issues with absolute confidentiality, without judgement, and find a way out of shame and pain. It will need trust and patience.

Jena is a Thuringian university city home to Friedrich Schiller University, one of Germany's historic research universities, and the birthplace of the Carl Zeiss optics company and SCHOTT AG—both still major local employers—giving the city a distinctive identity as both an elite academic and a high-technology industrial center that has navigated the profound economic transformation from East German planned economy to the unified Germany market economy. The psychological legacy of reunification—Ostalgie (nostalgia for the East), identity disruption, and the economic upheaval of the Wende—is present in the experiences of many older residents, while younger generations and international students bring a more globally oriented perspective. Mental health services are provided through public health structures, and a private therapy sector serves the university community and professional population. Common therapy concerns include identity and community belonging in a city navigating post-reunification change, student mental health at a demanding research university, anxiety, and the particular experiences of an East German city that has adapted more successfully than many of its neighbors but still carries the weight of transformation.
