Trauma therapists, psychologists, and psychiatrists can offer services to sexual abuse victims to help them better understand the abuse they have suffered and help them chart a course toward recovery. As an attorney for victims of sexual abuse and sexual assault, we often work closely and stay in communication with these health care providers to ensure that our clients best interest are being served. Some mental health care providers encourage clients to pursue civil litigation as a means for gaining closure and confronting the perpetrator in a controlled environment. Other mental health care providers might opine that a client is not yet ready to engage the course of civil litigation. If you or someone you know has fallen victim to sexual abuse it is important to understand that there is light at the end of the tunnel. Every day we provide legal counsel to victims of sexual abuse and their family members and we also help them to get the resources that they need for recovery. We do not charge for phone calls, so if you have questions do not hesitate to contact Andreozzi + Foote at 717-525-9124
