This study looks at the potential effects of a new group treatment called "Take Your Sexuality Back", designed for women who have experienced sexual trauma. Investigators will collect information in two ways-through forms that participants fill out themselves and through ECG measurements during a stress tests. Data will be collected before the treatment, right after it, and again three months later. When all data are collected and analyzed investigators will carry out in-depth interviews with participants and explore how they felt about being tested and how they understand the results -especially if some numbers look unusual or surprising. The goal with this study is to create a strong foundation for a future larger-scale study of the treatment by testing the methods, estimating the size of possible effects and identify outcome measurements that are experienced as meaningful to the participants.
