About Us: Therapy for Young Adults Sexual Abuse Survivors
Our Journey
Founded in 2017, Therapy for Young Adults Sexual Abuse Survivor (TYASAS) is a dedicated news website with a profound mission: to provide a safe space and reliable information source for young adults who have experienced sexual abuse. This platform was born out of the recognition that there is a significant gap in online resources tailored specifically to this vulnerable demographic.
Our Story
The idea for TYASAS emerged from the personal experiences and observations of our founders, who noted the lack of accessible and unbiased information available to young adults navigating therapy and recovery. Many survivors felt misunderstood or struggled to find accurate, age-appropriate resources. This inspired us to create a one-stop online hub that offers support, guidance, and knowledge.
Over the years, we have grown from a small team of dedicated volunteers to a thriving community of experts and supporters. Our milestones include:
- 2018: Launched our first blog series on therapy options for young adults.
- 2019: Established a peer support group online, fostering a sense of community among survivors.
- 2020: Expanded our team to include full-time therapists and writers, ensuring consistent content creation.
- 2022: Achieved over 500,000 page views, reaching a global audience.
Our Purpose and Mission
Our primary purpose is to empower young adults by providing them with the knowledge and tools they need to heal from sexual abuse. We aim to:
- Bridge the Information Gap: Fill the void in online resources specifically designed for this age group.
- Promote Awareness: Increase understanding of the unique challenges faced by young adult survivors.
- Offer Support: Provide a non-judgmental space for sharing experiences and finding guidance.
- Advocate for Quality Care: Ensure survivors have access to accurate information about therapy options and available support services.
Core Values

- Providing age-appropriate resources, ensuring content is relatable and accessible to young adults.
- Collaborating with therapists, psychologists, and survivors to ensure the accuracy and sensitivity of our material.
- Offering a diverse range of perspectives on healing, avoiding one-size-fits-all solutions.
- Encouraging open dialogue through comments and feedback sections, fostering a community of support.
