About Us

Jean Dorff is the founder of The Empowering Story and a dedicated advocate for survivors of sexual trauma. With over 30 years of experience in sexual trauma recovery and coaching, and somatic healing, Jean brings a rare blend of professional expertise and lived understanding. His work bridges mind, body, and story—guiding survivors of sexual abuse through narrative transformation, body-based practices, and compassionate support.

What began as Jean’s personal search for healing has grown into The Empowering Story, a program and movement that empowers survivors worldwide. Through survivor healing stories, coaching, books, and community, Jean’s mission remains clear: to transform silence into strength, helping survivors heal from sexual abuse, reclaim their voice, and create a future defined not by trauma but by possibility.
