Abstract
The psychosocial impact of sexual violence (SV) on college-aged women necessitates understanding positive influences of survivors' healing processes. The purpose of this study, therefore, was to investigate facilitators in the healing journey for undergraduate SV survivors. Seventeen women were interviewed using Photo-experiencing and Reflective Listening (PEARL). Thematic analysis revealed three core facilitators: (a) Support-formal and informal networks promote emotional well-being, (b) Personal Development-emotional intelligence, self-reflection, positivity, and interpersonal skills encourage healing, and (c) Actions-intentional efforts, self-care, and help-seeking empower survivors. These findings highlight key areas for supportive interventions to promote survivor healing, well-being, and quality of life.
