Experiences of women sexually abused by professionals in adulthood are examined, comparing those sexually abused in childhood with those not so abused. The goal is to inform subsequent therapists about the needs of this clinical population. Those sexually abused in childhood appear to have a more difficult time following the abuse by the professional and to present a wider array of emotional turmoil and life difficulties. They also present particular strengths. Both groups seem to benefit from a boundaried, competent subsequent therapist versed in the effects of malpractice and in the specific needs of this client population related to such issues as mistrust of professionals, legal concerns, etc Key Words: Revictimizationsexual abuseprofessional ethicspatient abuseprofessional client sexual relationssurvivorstreatment
