I help survivors of sexual trauma reclaim their lives + enjoy intimacy with a partner they love

10/29/2026

There’s no such thing as a perfect victim.
After an assault, your whole system is focused on getting you through.

Showering, staying quiet, texting him, not reporting, not trusting your own memories: none of that is failure. It’s what surviving can look like.

I did all of those things, and I still deserved to be believed.

If you’re judging yourself for how you reacted, please hear this: you were doing your best in one of the worst moments of your life. That is enough. It was not your fault.

Share this with someone who’s still blaming themselves.

This doesn’t just happen in the big cases. It happens all the time and often it is a tactic that predators & abusers use to keep us silent.

And I’ll be super honest about it, it kept me silent for a very long time because that fear was so real.

My father and others who abused me as a child threatened to kill my mother and my step father and my brother if I ever said anything.

My father threatened to break into my mothers house and beat her and my step father to death in front of me while making me watch and then take me away. So I stayed quite about the sexual abuse even in court ordered therapy that was taking place at the exact same time as the abuse.

I believed him and others who made those threats because I had experienced their violence before and trusted they would act on those threats.

This is one of the many reasons why survivors don’t report. This is why I will speak out now, because I know it isn’t always safe to speak out.

I am safe now so I can use my voice to speak for those who can’t. Jane doe I don’t know that you will ever see this but I know just how scary those threats are and I am so sorry for all that you are enduring and I want you to know there is hope and healing on the other side 🤍
