Thank you for your post. Unfortunately, there is only so much you can do if she refuses to see a therapist. Her best option is to seek professional help.
There is one last thing you can do for her and it's for you to seek advice and information from RAINN.
The Rape, Abuse, and Incest National Network (RAINN) provides a toll-free 24-hour hot line for victims of sexual assault at 1-800-656-HOPE. RAINN provides information for friends and family members and if she will open up to counseling, you can search their database for a counselor as well.
Here is more information for you and what you can do to help. Please do what you can for her, but don't feel burdened or obligated if she will not get any help. There is help for her but she must seek it.
