Understanding Mothers of Incest Victims

May 7, 2015 Aleah 6 Comments

Sexual abuse by a family member is a very traumatic experience. Sometimes, the mother chooses to support the perpetrator instead of the child. Here are a few reasons why.

I'm a mental health counselor with years of experience handling physically and sexually abused women and children. I have training in solution-focused therapy and child-led play therapy. I conduct psychological evaluations for children presenting with a wide array of symptoms and concerns.

I'm also a trainer specializing on domestic abuse, child sexual abuse prevention, and gender-based violence. As a freelance writer, I write about psychology, solo travel, and running.
