Dr. Brian Sharpless
Psychologist, Ph.D., Clinical Psychology; M.A., Philosophy
Sexual abuse doesn't effect everyone the same way. As such, there is no one treatment that works equally for everyone. I have been trained to use various forms of psychodynamic (e.g., Supportive-Expressive Treatment, Transference-Focused Psychotherapy) and cognitive-behavioral (e.g., Prolonged Exposure) therapies to help people suffering from the long-term effects of sexual and physical abuse.

Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
Because I have a speciality in trauma processing therapies, folks with past abuse can often find real relief in working through the implications of trauma-not just the memories of these experiences but how the body does indeed "keep the score". Trauma work needs to include both strong relational rapport, education about how trauma impacts on all levels of functioning and processing therapies such as EMDR or Deep Brain Reorienting to assist with deep healing.

Faye Williams
Marriage and Family Therapist, ALMFT
Sexual abuse is a systemic and personal issue, affecting the victim in deeply personal ways. Therapy can offer a supportive space to untangle the messages that abuse teaches us about ourselves. It takes time and a gentle approach, and eventually regaining autonomy and sense of self is worth the effort.

Dr. Amanda Malak
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist
I specialize in supporting individuals who have experienced sexual abuse by providing a safe, compassionate space to process the trauma and its effects. My approach involves using therapeutic modalities to help people heal, rebuild their sense of safety, and regain control over their lives. I help clients address feelings of shame, guilt, and fear while working through the emotional and psychological impact of abuse. My goal is to empower survivors to rebuild their self-esteem, manage symptoms of trauma, and move forward in a way that supports their overall healing and well-being. Referral to community organizations, like the Survivor's Sanctuary (https://sanctuary.metoomvmt.org/), are also helpful tools for people to use alone or alongside therapy.

Dr. Kelsi Clayson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
The effects of sexual abuse can linger long after the experience itself, shaping the way you see yourself, your relationships, and the world around you. You may struggle with trust, feel disconnected from your body, or experience shame that doesn’t belong to you. Maybe certain memories surface when you least expect them, or you find yourself avoiding situations that feel too vulnerable or triggering. However it shows up, know that your response is valid—your mind and body have worked hard to protect you.
Healing from sexual abuse is not about "just moving on" but about reclaiming your sense of safety, autonomy, and self-worth. In our work together, we will move at your pace, creating a space where you feel supported, understood, and in control of your own healing process. You are not defined by what happened to you, and you do not have to carry this alone. With care and intention, we can work toward healing, self-compassion, and the ability to fully step into your life on your terms.

I offer a gentle, somatic-informed space where you are completely in control of your story. Together, we will work to safely process the trauma, release stored physical distress, and steadily reclaim your body as a safe home.

Fort Wayne is Indiana's second-largest city and a hub for defense manufacturing, healthcare, and distribution logistics — an occupational mix that shapes a therapy culture in which shift work stress, workplace injury adjustment, and career identity are common themes. The city has a significant Burmese refugee community — one of the largest in the United States — creating important demand for therapists with cultural competence around refugee trauma, resettlement stress, and the challenges of navigating American systems. Parkview Health and Lutheran Health Network provide major institutional mental health resources alongside a private practice community. Fort Wayne's conservative faith community means spiritually integrated approaches are a prominent feature of the local therapy offering.
