The statistics are mind boggling. At least 1 in 3 women and 1 in 6 men in the U.S. are victims of sexual violence in their lifetime. For some groups and in some countries it’s over 50%!
If you are a woman who has experienced sexual abuse, you may have had years of treatment or tried everything and are still not experiencing the kind of sex and love you desire. Or, you may not feel like you need therapy, because you are clear that it wasn’t your fault and you are functioning pretty well, but in some ways you still feel broken. It’s hard for you to let down your guard during sex, even with a partner you trust.
If you are a man who has suffered sexual trauma, you may still struggle with the shame of it, feel less of a man, feel anxious or isolated and fear being judged for it. Many nice men in the wake of #MeToo are afraid to even approach women or flirt for fear of being treated like they are creepy if they express their desires. They feel like they have to walk around hiding their masculinity. Or they just say ‘to hell with it’ and avoid women altogether. Others struggle in knowing how to support their partners and create amazing sex lives after trauma.
How do we heal?
My Seriously Sexy coaching program is trauma informed, and it uses tools to help you release sexual trauma, wire a sense of safety into your nervous system and help you regain sexual wellness. I’ve worked with many people who have suffered sexual abuse and report that they’ve come farther in just a few sessions with me than they have in years of therapy. This work uses holistic tools to go deeply into the nervous system, the brain and body, where trauma is stored, in a way that talking simply can’t. I’ve also helped so many clients feel more secure in expressing their sexuality.
If you are ready to reclaim your life after sexual trauma, or if you desire to feel more empowered in your sexuality, I invite you to schedule a face to face meeting with me to see if my program is right for you. Isn’t it about time for you to begin sexually thriving, not merely surviving?
