Body noise! Yes. Love that term and will use it. The project is going well, but it's a lot harder than I thought...

Thanks! I'll send your comment to Dani directly - in case she doesn't see this comment.

That was so funny that they started to make them up. But good to know you’re from Canada!

As a therapist who works with complex trauma I felt called to add that sometimes clients have to really build trust with their therapist before they can talk about anything distressing. I’ve spend weeks sometimes even months with clients talking about movies, hobbies, etc before they have been comfortable enough with me to talk about anything distressing - whether that be traumas or even stressors from their week. Making “small talk” is often a way of building trust and rapport with clients.

Just wanted to leave a tip for Dani! I’m an attorney and have personal experience navigating this issue in NYC and Boston! Contact a Victim Rights/ Rape Crisis Center in your area! They will have advocates there who can tell you what to expect in your case and in your local court system. The local prosecutors office will also like have a “Victim Advocate” you can ask. If you report to the cops, they may or may not be helpful. It was 50/50 in the cases I’ve seen. Ultimately, they will pass your case to the Prosecutor’s office/ District attorney to decide whether or not to pursue it in court. Prosecutors have discretion to do so or not. It’s a tough thing to navigate. The legal system will see what you’ve gone through as a crime against the state and you are a “victim-witness.” You don’t have many rights to speak up or for protection in that capacity. There are rules of evidence that will protect your name and certain details of what occurred, but that could depend on your state. If you bring a civil case and avoid the criminal system altogether, you’ll be able to be represented and have a little more control over the process. Hope this is helpful!!!! Good luck!!!!
