Invisible Wounds: Understanding Non-Physical Forms of Sexual Violence

 

A self-paced digital course for therapists who want to deepen their trauma-informed practice so they can recognize and respond to coercion, grooming, sextortion, and digital exploitation and earn 3 approved CE credits in the process.

I'm Ready to Learn

This isn't another surface-level trauma overview or checkbox CEU course.
It's a focused, practice-ready learning experience that equips you with clinical tools so you can finally identify what your clients may not have the words to name.

If you're seeing clients who struggle with trust, minimization, shame, or unexplained distress but the story doesn't fit the usual categories…

The harm may be difficult to see. But it is real. And your ability to see it changes everything.

Welcome to the clinical knowledge your graduate training likely skipped, and your clients have been waiting for you to have.

Is This You?

You might be exactly who this course was made for.

  • You're a licensed therapist who takes trauma work seriously but coercion, grooming, and digital exploitation weren't covered in your training, and you know that gap is showing up in your sessions.
  • You've had clients disclose something that didn't sound "serious enough" to them but your instincts told you something was deeply wrong. You didn't have the language or framework to respond with confidence.
  • You want to be the kind of clinician who can hold space for survivors of harm that leaves no visible marks, the kind of harm that often goes unnamed, minimized, or missed entirely.
  • You're tired of feeling underprepared when clients bring up experiences involving online manipulation, coercive control, or exploitation and you're ready to change that.
  • You're seeking meaningful CEUs that actually apply to your caseload not hours you have to drag yourself through.
  • You believe every survivor deserves a clinician who can truly see them and you're committed to becoming that clinician.

If that sounds like you… you're exactly where you need to be.

 By the end of this course, you will have…

✔A clear clinical map of non-contact sexual violence

You'll confidently differentiate coercion, grooming, sextortion, and digital exploitation, understanding how each shows up in a client's history, behavior, and disclosure.

✔The language to name what clients can't

You'll recognize the signs of minimization and the systemic barriers that keep survivors silent so you can gently open doors your clients didn't know existed.

✔A trauma-informed assessment approach

You'll know how to incorporate non-physical sexual harm into your assessment and treatment planning with approaches grounded in evidence and survivor sensitivity.

✔Victim-sensitive clinical practices you can use immediately

You'll leave with practical tools to integrate into your existing work not theory you have to figure out how to apply later.

✔Greater cultural competence across diverse populations

You'll understand how invisible wounds present differently across cultures, identities, and communities so your care is both informed and inclusive.

✔Renewed confidence in your clinical identity

You'll walk away not just more knowledgeable but more grounded in your capacity to hold space for survivors who've never felt truly seen.

Your clients don't need you to have all the answers. They need you to know the right questions and this course shows you exactly what those are.
