Sexual Abuse therapists in Peoria Heights, Illinois IL
Jarrett Langfitt
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CADC
In my years of providing trauma therapy to survivors of sexual assault, I have seen the ways in which sexual trauma can devastate the survivor's sense of safety, trust, self-esteem, and their ability to form meaningful connections with others. Sexual abuse can leave psychological wounds that impact many aspects of life. By seeking professional support in the aftermath of this type of violation, you have taken a significant step toward taking back power and self-direction. You deserve to be heard, understood, and supported as you grapple with your experiences and move toward healing.
If you are struggling with the impact of sexual assault, I encourage you to reach out to me today to discuss how I can support you in your journey.

Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In working with patients who have experienced sexual abuse, I offer specialized support tailored to their needs. This involves creating a safe and compassionate environment for them to explore their experiences and emotions. Through therapy, we address trauma symptoms, such as anxiety, depression, or PTSD, and develop coping strategies for managing triggers and flashbacks. I also provide education about trauma and its effects, as well as guidance on self-care and building resilience. The therapeutic process focuses on empowering survivors, promoting healing, and restoring a sense of agency and control over their lives.
