Sexual Violence Survivors in Cambridge, MA—Therapy and Counseling

Regardless of the form it takes, sexual violence can cause substantial harm to its victims, and it is important for anyone who has experienced rape, sexual assault, or sexual harassment to know that what happened to them was not their fault. It is possible to feel safe and whole again. Many survivors work with a therapist as they heal from sexual violence. Counseling for victims of sexual assault has be a key element of many people’s healing journey.

The mental health professionals—including our counselors, therapists, and psychologists—at Thriveworks Cambridge have helped many people who have lived through sexual violence. We understand the trauma and harm it can cause. We also understand what it takes to heal.

Sexual Assault: Emotional and Physical Injuries

Some of the wounds that sexual violence can leave are seen and some are unseen. Each is very personal. Because sexual assault can take many different forms, so can the wounds it leaves. Nonetheless, many survivors report dealing with similar dynamics. It does not mean that everyone will experience these wounds, but they are common.

  • Psychological and Emotional Injures. People who have lived through sexual violence often report that many of the wounds they sustained could not be seen, but they were nonetheless real. They may struggle with their self-worth, with having been treated as an object instead of as a person. They may develop mental health challenges. It is common for survivors to be diagnosed with anxiety, depressive, or eating disorders. It is not unusual for them to struggle with sleep or self-harm.
  • Physical Harm. Crossing another person’s sexual boundaries is also a physical act of violence. Victims may sustain injuries during a rape or sexual assault. They may have cuts, broken bones, bruises, and more. It is possible to contract a sexually transmitted disease as well. Women may also become pregnant.

★★★★★
I've had several therapists and psychiatrists leave while working with them, which has been difficult. Though it's most likely difficult to stop the problem entirely, something to improve could be the benefits/employee selection to ensure this is the environment they'd prefer to work in.
