I went through therapy for childhood sexual abuse (ages 6-12) and rape at 16. It was a long hard road, but oh so worth it. Find a therapist that will allow you to go at your pace but also push a little when needed. You only need to disclose what you want when you want. Early on my therapist asked me to write a narrative so that she knew what we were dealing with. From then on we tackled one thing at a time as they came up. My therapist used Rapid Reduction Technique (RRT). It allowed me to stop the flashbacks without having to relive. You revisit in the safety of the therapist, never relive it. Therapy was the best gift I ever gave myself. I took my power back from my abusers. I wish you well!
