During the reorganization phase, the survivor attempts to make life adjustments by moving or changing jobs and uses emotional distancing to cope. The disorganization phase is characterized by shock, fear, disbelief, anger, shame, guilt, and feelings of uncleanliness. During the denial or outward adjustment phase, the survivor appears outwardly composed and returns to work or school and refuses to discuss the assault and denies the need for counseling. During the integration and recovery phase, the survivor begins to feel safe and starts to trust others.
