Looking for counselor in the Plymouth MA area


Question Posted Monday July 26 2010, 9:42 pm

I am a victim of long term sexual abuse. I won't go into details but I experience flashbacks on a daily basis I need help. I have gone to women aide but it was not helpful. Does anyone know of a counselor in the Plymouth Mass area who can help me cope and stop the flashbacks? Thank you in advance.

I am a great deal older than most of the advisers on this site, so my advice will be somewhat different from what you have received and may continue to receive from others.

Please contact an organization called RAINN. RAINN is an Acronym for the Rape, Abuse, Incest, National Network. Their phone number is 1-800-656-HOPE. This is their 24/7 National crisis hotline staffed by trained counselors who well help you find people in your area to help you. Please call them NOW.

If you are in danger or in crisis dial 911 now. Tell the call taker you are in danger and what is happening or you are in crisis and why. The help needed will be dispatched and the call taker will stay on the phone with you until help arrives. The first to respond will most likely be the Police and the Fire Department. Like the fire department the Police are there to help you and make sure you are safe from harm, do not be afraid of them.

All the medical information you give to the call taker and first responders is held in the strictest of confidence and covered under the HIPA Laws. It cannot be divulged to anyone without your permission. The same is true when you call RAINN and with any doctor or therapists you see.

Please call RAINN now or dial 911 now. Calling 911 is the fastest way to get help and to remove you from danger. Do it now,

There's 12 to get you started. Psychologytoday is a good general resource for you, but it lets you contact your potential therapist directly. You need a serious therapist, there are as in any line of work great and terrible therapists. If you get offered proscriptions and ignored, move on to someone else, try to find someone you can talk to who listens. If you are in college you can go to your campus student medical office and they might well have some help, if you're in high school consider a school counselor as a leg up to finding someone serious to talk to.
