Sexual abuse, so common in women and many men, is damaging at any time of life, and particularly hard to process as a child, giving rise to many symptoms of impairment. Kate works sensitively with each client, working with them through the long, slow process of healing.
Psychologist, BA, Grad Dip Psych, MAPS, Certified Master Coach
I work with many women who have experienced the trauma of sexual abuse. Therapies applied could be EMDR to process the associated traumas, CBT for looking forward and planning ahead and living a fuller life.
Trauma affects not only our psyches but our relationships with others. I aim to help you get back to your own, authentic life after experiencing sexual abuse.
Psychologist, Masters in Clinical Psychology, Ph.D.
One in four. That is right. No matter which country around the world we look at, this is roughly the number of people who, by the age of 20, have had some form of unwanted sexual contact that they found emotionally scarring. At this practice, we understand how that can make you feel for years afterwards and we have access to some therapeutic procedures and processes that can help you to reclaim your life after sexual abuse.
Sexual abuse is a traumatic experience and can have profound and long-lasting effects, including physical, emotional, and psychological harm. I provide a supportive and compassionate environment where safety and no judgment is paramount. I help to facilitate healing through a range of modalities that go beyond traditional talk therapy that can access deeper and underlaying trigger responses to the trauma that often don't make sense or seem uncontrollable.
