Sexual Abuse Psychiatrists in New York, NY

You are a high networth individual and seemingly have it all. But, you are a male survivor of sexual abuse or assault. Do you suffer from shame, guilt, fear, and relationship conflicts? Do you have persistent body insecurities or feel less than? There are many men who have survived and some have learned to thrive. You intellectually know it was never about sex, but rather the power dynamic. You likely did whatever you had to do to survive. Perhaps you are overachieving to feel loveable, good enough, worthy, to avoid or numb pain, to avoid feeling powerless again? Do you easily anger? It does not have to be this way.
