Healing from sexual abuse should be handled by a clinician trained and experienced in this area. We will work together to identify how the past abuse impacts your current functioning and identify areas for change so that you can enjoy living your life more fully.

Alena Porter
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
Sexual abuse is not always violent, in fact, it is rarely violent. I have presented at conferences on non-consensual sexual experiences and how those experiences affect clients. I will never ever tell you that anything you went through was your fault, wasn't "really rape," or is your marital duty. In addition to non-consensual sexual experiences I specialize in treating military sexual trauma. Almost all cases of sexual abuse are compounded by institutional betrayal either by medical professionals, police officers, human resources or commanding officers, or lawyers. Institutional betrayal can make it difficult for clients to trust anyone. I hope that if you are a person who has gone through any of these experiences that you will reach out to myself or other sex positive therapists.

Sexual abuse is much more common than most people realize. Processing and treating sexual abuse is an important part of recovery.

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.
