† In the Resources section, see American Association of Sex Educators, Counselors, and Therapists (AASECT) to obtain a list of certified sex therapists in your area. Before setting up an appointment, interview the therapist to make sure he or she has specialized training in sexual abuse treatment. As with finding any therapist, you may also want to talk with people in your community, such as physicians and people in referral agencies, who are familiar with the therapist’s approach and work.
