Erika Shershun
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I'm passionate about helping survivors of sexual abuse to heal. I don't want others to spend years and years as I did, trying to get the support they need. For this reason, my work focusses on eliminating your symptoms and getting you the results you want. Some therapist say we never heal, that is not my experience. I'm the author of the Healing Sexual Trauma Workbook (available in four languages), and the Healing Sexual Trauma Guided Journal will be released in fall 2024. My Sexual Trauma Clinical Training course for therapists is available through PESI, and the Healing Sexual Trauma Course for survivors will be available sometime in 2024 at HealingSexualTrauma.com

Sexual Abuse
Marley Cote
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, MS
Shame. Disgust. Betrayal. Terror. Panic. Helplessness. Rage. These are the common emotions that haunt or plague many survivors of sexual abuse. Further, sexual abuse can leave survivors feeling fragmented and dehumanized. These emotions are often only one part of struggling to survive, with flashbacks and trauma responses often frustrating or flooding survivors. Many survivors often wonder if they will ever feel "normal" again after what has happened, if it is even possible to find safety again within and outside of themselves. In my work with survivors, my clients discover what it means to be grounded again within their bodies, to find their bodies safe again, and to release trauma that has limited them for so long.

Alethea Gard'ner, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
Unfortunately, sexual abuse is way too common in our world. It often leads to traumatic responses not limited to difficulty in relationships, negative self image, shame, blame, and depression. Working through the abuse can be very empowering and change the way you view yourself. I have been privileged to work with many women and men as they process these memories and regain themselves.
