Emotional Healing Is The Answerthe Question Is: How Were You
Hurt?

If you are having trouble with relationships–on the job, in
your family; or experience low self-esteem, panic attacks,
anxiety, depression, alcohol/drug abuse, nightmares, suicidal
thoughts or attempts, shame, guilt, baseless crying, angry
outbursts, inability to recognize your feelings, mood swings,
emotional shut down, numbing out, arthritis/joint pain,
chronic/acute fear, headaches/migraines, eating disorders, PMS,
gastrointestinal/gynecological disorders, chronic fatigue
syndrome, MS or fibromyalgia, you are not alone Many men and
women experience this kind of pain Many, if not most, do not
know sexual abuse/incest is the cause of their emotional/
physical pain They attribute these maladies to their inadequacy
for the rigors of adult life or genetic abnormality
Family violence research reveals sexual abuse is as high as 62%
for females and 31% for males Whether the abuse occurred once
or several times is irrelevant, because the damage is incurred
immediately The damage is profound, extensive and pervasive–it
is a soul injury Time, money, pills, surgery, marriage,
children, moving, jobs, divorce, perfectionism can not heal the
pain
Talk therapy is inadequate to uncover the emotional pain, and
heal the trauma trapped in muscles and tissue To fully
appreciate the depth of this pain, I will quote one of my
clients, “Even my blood hurts” A multifaceted healing process
specifically focused on sexual abuse recovery and diligent work
is the most effective; wherein the survivor can replenish their
emotional and spiritual identity and empowerment
