Sexual Abuse
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.

Sexual Abuse
Dr. Anna Smith
Psychologist, PsyD, MEd, MA
The impact of sexual abuse or assault can live in the body and in relationships long after the events themselves—showing up as shutdown, hypervigilance, difficulty with touch, trust issues, or disconnection from your own desire. In a trauma-informed, gentle, and empowering space, we work at your pace to process what happened, release shame that doesn’t belong to you, and help you reclaim safety, pleasure, and agency in your body and intimate connections. Healing is possible, and you deserve to feel at home in your sexuality again.

Sexual Abuse
Dr. Patricia Webbink
Psychologist, MA and PhD in Clinical Psychology
I have seen many survivors of sexual abuse, rape and incest over the years. A pioneer in the field of rape and violence as Women's Issues, I have been quoted in numerous articles and books on these subjects, as well as being the author of an article for "Victimology Magazine". I provided the original staff training at the DC Rape Crisis Center and followed up with active support of their counselors. I also worked with the DC Area Women's Center. I testified at the Rape Council Hearings in the 1970's and have been featured in a prime time TV series on rape. My relaxation methods and my zoom seminars help to facilitate healing, and many find them helpful. Please feel free to call for further information and/or a consultation: 301-229-8000.

The majority of my training and clinical work has been focused on helping adults recover from early traumatic experiences.

Pamela Brewer
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, Ph.D, LCSW-C,DCSW
Sexual is abuse is never deserved. It is never your "fault". Healing does not have to equal forgive and forget - but you can learn to understand, set limits and know that your pain, your experience was/is real. You can learn to think about your experiences through a different lens. Your life can be better.

Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed therapy for individuals who have experienced sexual abuse and related trauma, including the lasting emotional effects such as shame, guilt, worthlessness, anxiety, depression, fear, emotional numbness, and difficulty with trust, relationships, and self-esteem. These experiences can have a profound and long-term impact on emotional well-being, identity, and overall quality of life.
Brad takes a holistic and trauma-focused approach to healing from sexual abuse, providing a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental environment where clients can process their experiences at their own pace. Therapy is designed to help clients reduce emotional distress, restore a sense of safety and control, and begin rebuilding self-worth and emotional stability.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, emotional regulation strategies, and holistic therapeutic approaches to support deep and meaningful healing. Treatment focuses on processing traumatic memories, reducing symptoms of distress, and addressing the underlying emotional impact that often persists long after the abuse has occurred.
Sexual trauma often requires specialized, trauma-focused treatment. While supportive talk therapy can be helpful, deeper healing typically involves addressing the nervous system responses, emotional wounds, and core beliefs formed through the traumatic experience. Brad’s approach is designed to support this deeper level of healing and long-term recovery.
Therapy is collaborative and individualized, allowing clients to feel safe, respected, and empowered throughout the healing process. The focus is on helping clients regain emotional balance, strengthen resilience, and develop healthier ways of relating to themselves and others.
Healing is possible. With the right support, clients can move beyond the impact of sexual abuse, release feelings of shame and self-blame, and rebuild a stronger, more grounded sense of identity, safety, and self-worth.

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.
