How RRT Cleared This Male Survivor of Sexual Assault


By Tara Dickherber, M.Ed, LPC

Senior Certified Practitioner, Rapid Resolution Therapy     

Did you know that about 10% of all victims of the crimes of sexual assault, sexual abuse and rape in the U.S. are male? We hear a lot about women and girls being molested and raped, but we don't hear as often about men and boys. You can read more statistics on this and other areas of sexual assault on the RAINN website.

Since I specialize in treating survivors of sexual violence I'm starting to meet some male survivors. Last year I had the honor of working with a senior in high school. His father had actually called to see how RRT could help his son who had been sexually abused a few years prior. He is the first Dad to ever call me for an appointment, let alone a Dad making an appointment for his son. Then Dad came with his son, and Dad was a force to be reckoned with - which I did! (I'm grateful to have been both a client and practitioner of RRT to master my ability to flow with a situation even when someone is trying to be pushy and angry).  

Back to his son. Here sits this tall, handsome, sweet, young and accomplished athlete literally shaking in his tennis shoes. Dad and I settled his concerns, and off Dad went. The assault this young man survived had several layers, which we quickly cleared and moved on from. He went from physically shaking to laughing and having a good time. There really is a lot of laughter going on in my sessions. Sometimes I leave a session feeling like I just completed a stand-up comedy routine!

Three weeks after a session, my office manager or I follow up with my clients to check in. Given that this young man is in high school I simply text him to check in. I got back the BEST text message. He said he was doing very well, things were going well, and that what we did was a big help! I have saved that text message for months now!

There are male and female survivors that can greatly benefit from our help!  I can't wait to help even more.

Be happy - Tara

Butterfly Sisterhood Created at Heal The Healer Retreat!


Certified Practitioner, Rapid Resolution Therapy 

What do you get when 20 warm, bright, enthusiastic, caring, terrific therapists get together on the Gulf Coast of Florida? MAGIC! That's just what was created in the Heal The Healer retreat held the weekend of March 8th in Fort Walton Beach, Florida.

The weekend was created by four exceptional therapists: Dr. Elizabeth Michas, Melinda Paige (shown on right), Molly Sanford and Dr. Sharon Richie-Melvan. They gave presentations and demonstrations on topics we requested and helped us work on our own personal issues. We even had a workshop on being Happy For No Reason. Special thanks to Elizabeth, who lives in Ft. Walton, we had great restaurant recommendations where 20 of us piled in for good food and great fun! And the laughter abounded. We stayed up till all hours just laughing and talking.

I can truly say the weekend exceeded my expectations. Molly, Sharon, Melinda and Elizabeth are not only skilled therapists, but skilled teachers and master listeners as well. Everyone with whom I spoke said they learned so much and were so appreciative of the "no question is silly" philosophy of the group.

In the middle of the weekend our organizers presented us with a string of butterflies and asked that we each cut a butterfly off the string to take home. And thus the Butterfly Sisterhood was created. What an incredible journey we butterflies had. We took flight as the weekend progressed as we all became more comfortable with each other and with our skills. I've been in touch with most participants since the weekend and one described her experience as "transformative."

It was truly a memorable weekend. One that I hope you will all get to experience.

RRT Study 2 is drawing to a close with the beginning of April 2013. If you have submitted the pre-treatment assessments for a client and anticipate completing treatment and collecting the post treatment assessments within the next few weeks, please contact me directly at 352-476-5599. Otherwise Dr. Tom Dikel will begin analyzing the data submitted thus far, and the research team will start drafting the write-up of our results.

We are excited that our work has inspired newly trained Rapid Resolution Therapists to identify new research opportunities. Congrats to Chris Harris who now has the approval of his doctoral committee to conduct an evidenced based study of RRT. We also want to thank David Monroe who just completed a Level I workshop and endorsed how valuable his RRT training has been for his clients. David's recommendations to Dr. Rick Doblin of the Public Policy, Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University has resulted in an invitation for consultation on future studies. Many thanks to all who continue to make miracles in their practice and are willing to share their results with us!

Warmest!
