Janie’s just trying to get well. As she recovers from a violent psychotic break, she’s subjected each day to a bizarre holistic health and wellness regimen designed, and enforced, by her lifelong nanny and caretaker. But when she develops an obsession with a stranger, Janie's buried demons begin to surface.

We witness an attack in an alleyway by a male character, suggesting rape/sexual assault. Later, we see Janie's caregiver Irma insist on giving her a medical check vaginally (unwillingly). We only see the naked back of Janie, and no on-screen penetration occurs, but it's deeply uncomfortable.

The most violent gore occurs after an explicit sexual act, but isn't shown up-close nor lasts too long.

Janie is a fully-grown adult. We see snippets of her being treated as a child, but no on-screen child abuse.

Graphic on-screen stalking, not just hunting. Following in public, breaking into the home, using their shower, stroking their bed. Results in kidnapping.

Eggs are thrown onto the ground, and they contain mostly-formed baby birds, which kills them.

There’s one attempted sexual assault, and one scene where it’s strongly implied that the main character is about to be sexually abused by her caretaker as a form of punishment.

No, but we see lots of holistic therapy (green juice, yoga, sound exercise) given by her caretaker in the form of psychiatric treatment.

Janie has a psychotic disorder, and instead of inpatient stay and clinical healthcare, undergoes holistic therapy and abuse by her caregiver (to prevent her from entering the system).
