fear of rape
Posted: Fri Oct 12, 2007 2:31 pm
Hello everyone
I have a patient who has expressed her greatest fear as being that of being raped. It is not based on something that has previous happened to her along this line but on the emotionally [not physically] abusive way she saw her real father treat her older stepsister.
I can only see in the rep - dreams of rape or effects from rape but not 'fear of rape'.
Although there are a number of factors to consider I would appreciate if anyone has any references they may be able to share from their reps to cover this point.
thanks
Beverly
