Wow, that's tough. The first thing you have to realize is, you can't change someone, they have to want to change. She hid all this from you and just hoped it would go away and that is not a good sign. She has to confront this and deal with it, and that may take years, or it may never happen at all. Second thing, you can't 'teach' someone how to enjoy sex after being raped or abused. That person has to deal with what is making them afraid of sexual contact, which ties into my first point.
I can say all this because I've been through it before, with a girl who wasn't willing to confront her abuse and come to terms with it, and was never able to enjoy any kind of sex at all unless she was just drunk or drugged out of her mind or both. I left her because she was only getting worse, and was never going to change. That might seem like an asshole thing to do, and maybe it was, but no sex in a relationship is a dealbreaker for me. Once I let go of my obsession with 'fixing' her, I realized she would never get better unless she wanted to, and I realized I was miserable in a sexless relationship and it was time to get out.
That's not to say you should just dump her, but you have a tough road ahead, probably involving professional councelling and possibly years of recovery. Be supportive but realize you can't fix her problem, she has to deal with it herself. Good luck.
