A poem series from the eyes of a therapist
Many clients have experienced sexual trauma. We never take these stories for granted because we know they are personal, private, and painful.
We all have a story. How we chose to share our story and integrate our story into our lives depends on who we are and how we want to heal.
Sometimes what clients go through is an exact replication of their own trauma. This is so painful to watch, it’s called retraumatization.
So many women have a story of #metoo – sometimes it can be hard to feel like you have a story but you can’t tell it. Or, you have a story but you don’t want to tell it.
