Starting Sexual abuse therapy

What is Sexual abuse therapy?

Sexual abuse therapy helps victims heal from their abuse and trauma. Sex crime can take a number of forms, from the abuse of a child to the violent sexual assault of an adult. No matter what kind of experience you or a loved one has had, the trained providers at Thriveworks in Knoxville, TN will be ready to get to work on helping you find a path toward a better future.

How does Sexual abuse therapy work?

Sexual abuse therapy works by helping victims process and move forward from their traumatic experience(s). In addition, it helps one address and manage any resulting mental health challenges from depression to stress, anxiety, poor self-image, unhealthy eating patterns, and more.

Is Sexual abuse therapy conducted in person or online?

Sexual abuse therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and via Online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long does Sexual abuse therapy last?

For sexual abuse, counseling in Knoxville often lasts for months to years. However, it can last longer or shorter, depending on the individual's unique needs.

Need more help deciding?

The victims of sexual abuse face a long road to recovery. Being the victim of any form of sex crime is a traumatic event, and it requires support and assistance from a wide range of people to help victims get back on their feet once again. If you or someone you know is a sexual abuse victim, we would like for you to consider our sexual abuse therapy services here in Knoxville. We take pride in helping victims recover the life they have lost, so we hope you will take a moment to learn more about our counseling options.

Victims of past sexual abuse should not have to deal with their memories and experiences all on their own. It is the support and help of others that can get someone back on their feet, and our experienced team is proud to play a role in that process. The Knoxville sexual abuse recovery therapy that we offer is designed to confront the problem in a way that can allow it to be overcome moving forward. Nothing can undo the abuse that has taken place, but we can work hard to improve the future for sex assault victims.

There are a number of potential mental health issues that can stem from being a victim of sexual assault. Those include:

  • Anxiety and depression
  • Changes in personality
  • Difficulty forming attachments with others
  • Addictions
  • Many more

It is extremely difficult to get over some of these mental health issues without assistance. There is absolutely nothing wrong with seeking help when you have been the victim of sexual assault – the help you receive should be viewed in the same way that you would view any other medical treatment. By receiving attention to deal with the issues that you are facing, you can give yourself a chance at improved life for yourself and your family in the days and years ahead.

If you would like to learn more about our sexual abuse therapy options, please feel free to contact us right away. We will always respect your privacy, and we will be happy to discuss treatment options with you.

I saw Justin for assistance with OCD. He showed me how to look at things in a way that did not allow my OCD to take over. I will would highly recommend him.

I have been taking my 7 year old grandson to see Justin. He had horrible anxiety. It saddened us to see how bad it was. He had developed tics. Justin was absolutely wonderful with him. He has overcome most of his fears and tics have went away. I would highly recommend Justin.

Going to Thriveworks for the past year and a half has been the most rewarding counseling experience I’ve had. Seeing Lindsey has had the single biggest impact on my emotional and mental health, especially in healing from past childhood abuse and trauma, and ongoing PTSD. Out of multiple counselors in two states, Lindsey Chandler is by far the one with whom I’ve felt the most accepted, supported, and encouraged by. I am grateful for the Thriveworks space, as it is not at all clinical nor intimidating, but entirely warn and welcoming. It is nearly a scent-free environment, which is vital for the comfort of any highly sensitive persons. I choose to drive an hour from home each visit specifically to stay loyal to a place where I finally feel safe and valued—where in the past commuting five minutes from home to work with a therapist felt like a chore and an ordeal—and I will continue to do so as I work further toward a healthier me.

Dr Neal has helped me more in the last 2 months than any other therapist in the last 5 years. Therapy has become a joy instead of a chore. :)

My son saw “Mrs. Amanda” as he affectionately called her shortly after my marriage ended in a high conflict divorce. My son was 6 years old at the time, so it was difficult for him to process his feelings without knowing how to communicate with us. Amanda Gilliam was always there to listen and provide outlets for him to speak openly about his feelings in a way that could be understood. She is top knotch in my book and I would highly recommend her as a professional!

I was in sessions with Justin for about a year and highly recommend him. He has a deep grasp of psychology that he is constantly refreshing and renewing, and he was able to help me a lot in understanding what was driving the emotions and feelings of myself and close family members. He was a great help.
