Real talk about trauma and healing
What happened is not your fault, no matter what you said or did. Everyone who comes to me for medical care for sexual or physical abuse has so many questions, doubts and fears. ASK AARON is for teens and young adult survivors where I share everything that I would tell you if you were in my office, providing information, inspiration and support.

Presentations
These presentations were designed to be delivered in-person by health professionals with expertise in child maltreatment; thus, these should only serve as reference for people who attended the live presentation. To only read these presentations, without having them taught by someone who has expertise, could lead to a false sense of comfort and possible under- or over-diagnosis of abuse.
