If you are employed with benefits, some companies offer short term employee counselling through the employee assistance plan. This may not be enough but it is one resource you could explore.

The other thing you may want to look at is the self help books section at the local chapters for books like Darlene's or "The Courage to Heal" by Ellen Bass. There are others as well which may also be found at your library. Some of these books have self help exercises to do independently to start the healing process.

Be well.

G my immediate response to your story that the abuse did not stop with you! Pedophiles want as many children as they can get their hands on.
When I was a young child my grandfather raped and abused me but he also ordered me to entice a girlfriend to come into the house to "play"
I can really relate to the anger that you are feeling and you must also be grieving for the childhood that you have lost, this is all very normal reactions.
I was fortunate to have had extensive therapy unfortunately with you living in the States your Health system is not like ours up here in Canada.
I can only hope that you will be able to find some one to one counseling because that is a huge part of the healing is talking about what happened over and over again until you get it all out, otherwise it will sit inside and fester.
If you have a close friend don't be ashamed to open up to him/her alot more people are open to this than they were when you and I were younger and no one would believe us and made me feel like it was all my fault.
Good Luck G, Happy Christmas to you and I hope the New Year brings you, Peace, Good Health and love:}
