Description

What characteristics do a psychiatrist or psychologist in Maryland look for when identifying sexual abuse?

Sexual abuse by a psychiatrist or psychologist in Maryland include any sort of inappropriate sexual activity or contact between the mental health practitioner and the patient. This can include both physical activities, such as unwanted touching or sexual assault, and non-physical behaviors, such as making sexual remarks, exposing oneself, or coercing a patient into sexual activity. Such activities violate professional ethics as well as the therapeutic relationship's inherent trust. Blank Kim Injury Law in Silver Spring, MD, is committed to assisting victims in identifying and understanding these infractions.

What is the long-term impact of sexual abuse by psychiatrists and psychologists?

Sexual abuse against psychiatrists and psychologists can have long-term and fatal consequences. Victims frequently suffer from severe emotional and psychological trauma, such as anxiety, sadness, and PTSD. Trust concerns may occur, making it difficult to obtain more mental health therapy or form healthy relationships. Abuse can also cause feelings of shame, remorse, and self-blame, increasing existing mental health disorders. Furthermore, a mental health professional's breach of trust can shake a victim's faith in the entire healthcare system. Blank Kim Injury Law in Silver Spring, MD, understands the devastating effects of such abuse and is dedicated to providing compassionate care and aggressive legal representation to survivors in order to obtain justice and begin the healing process.
