THE PSYCHOLOGICAL IMPACT OF EXPERIENCING SEXUAL HARASSMENT

Sexual harassment leaves more than just a mark on your employment record—it can damage your emotional well-being and disrupt every part of your life. The CDC has reported that 43.6% of women and 24.8% of men have been subjected to sexual harassment, often causing depression or PTSD. Victims often suffer silently, fearing retaliation or disbelief. At Stilz Law, we understand that the harm caused by harassment doesn’t end when the incident stops.

As your trusted sexual harassment attorneys, we understand the serious emotional toll these significant experiences can take. Anxiety, loss of confidence, and lasting trauma are often dismissed or minimized, but we treat each of these effects with the seriousness and compassion each one warrants.

The Personal Cost of a Hostile Environment

Being subjected to harassment can lead to depression, insomnia, panic attacks, and even post-traumatic stress. These aren’t exaggerations. These are the real outcomes of a toxic workplace. At Stilz Law, we have seen firsthand how these emotional injuries affect clients’ personal relationships, friendships, health, mental wellbeing, and sense of safety.

When the workplace becomes a source of fear instead of security, your life can feel off balance. That’s why it’s not only a legal issue—it’s a deeply personal one. We are here to help you navigate both.

Legal Support and Mental Health Awareness

At Stilz Law, we make it our mission to fight for justice while acknowledging our clients’ emotional journeys. We know how essential it is to be seen, heard, and validated after suffering this kind of mistreatment. We are here to listen, support, and guide you through this. You are not alone. 

Stilz Law works hard to gather the evidence, witness statements, and records to build a strong case. However, we also take time to guide our clients with care and empathy. Stilz Law recognizes the importance of combining legal action with emotional recovery.
