Dr. Patti on The Streets Don't Love You Back

Join us with Dr. Patti Feuereisen Author, Invisible Girls...The Truth about sexual abuse. Dr. Patti Feuereisen is a psychologist in private practice in Brooklyn Heights, N.Y. and Manhattan. She also trains staff who work with sex abuse survivors, speaks at colleges and high schools, runs workshops around the country. During her 25 years of work counseling sexual abuse survivors, Dr. Patti found that girls who start to talk about their sexual abuse and bring it out into the open will get better, heal and thrive. GirlThrive stands for GIRL TEENS HEALING RAPE & INCEST VICTORIOUSLY EMERGE. We know that girls and young women heal from sexual abuse. The healing and communicating continues through the blog. The site offers more stories from more girls who have been reaching out to me for years. You will find authentic stories from real girls, helpful concrete information, web-links, and all kinds of helpful insights into sexual abuse and young women. We are reaching out to all teen girls and young women who have experienced sexual abuse, or who know someone who is a survivor, or who just want to know the truth about sexual abuse. We invite you to read other girls stories and my feedback, we invite you to enlighten us and to let us help you. Girlthrive Inc. is the 501-C3 non-profit organization I set up in 2006. Girlthrive Inc. is the only organization to honor teen girls and young women who have survived incest and all sex abuse through scholarships, opportunity and education. Girlthrive Inc. empowers girls by providing tuition scholarships, laptop computers, funds kickboxing, art classes and more.
