For many survivors, abuse by a member of the clergy leaves a wound that runs deeper than words can describe. Trust, faith, and community — the very things that should provide comfort — can instead become sources of pain and betrayal. If you or someone you love has suffered abuse by a priest, pastor, rabbi, or other spiritual leader, please know this: you are not alone, and what happened to you is not your fault.
For decades, institutions of faith have too often turned a blind eye to abuse. Survivors have been silenced, shamed, or ignored. Ted Forman understands how deeply this kind of betrayal impacts every aspect of life — emotionally, spiritually, and socially. His work is rooted in empathy, listening, and a genuine belief that every survivor deserves to be heard, supported, and respected.
Healing is not a straight line. It takes courage to speak about what happened, and even more to seek justice. Ted Forman and his team can guide survivors through the process of holding powerful institutions accountable. He connects clients with trauma-informed resources, helps them understand their options, and stands beside them at every step.
Many survivors describe how difficult it is to come forward when the person who caused them harm was once seen as a moral authority. Ted provides a safe, private space where survivors can reclaim their voice and begin to rebuild trust. His mission is not just to help people pursue justice — but to help them regain a sense of dignity and control over their lives.
If you’re ready to talk, you will be met with compassion, not judgment. Ted Forman listens first, then helps you explore the path that feels right for you. Healing starts when you take that first step — and you don’t have to take it alone.
