Salutaris Psychotherapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Sexual abuse can affect a person’s sense of safety, trust, identity, relationships, and connection with their own body. Survivors may carry shame, fear, anger, confusion, anxiety, depression, or difficulty with intimacy—even when the abuse happened long ago. In therapy, I provide a respectful, affirming space to process these experiences at your pace, without pressure or judgment. My style is warm, practical, sometimes humorous when appropriate, and grounded in real life. Together, we work toward rebuilding safety, strengthening boundaries, reducing self-blame, and helping you reconnect with your voice, your worth, and your life beyond what happened.

Elizabeth Starnes
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S, ATR-BC®, REAT
Sexual abuse is often held in silence, leaving many survivors carrying deep shame, self-blame, and questions like “I should have done something differently,” even when the responsibility was never theirs. These experiences can impact how you see yourself, your sense of safety in your body, and your relationships, often leading to disconnection, numbing, or hyperawareness. In our work together, safety, choice, and trust come first. I integrate expressive arts therapy as a central part of the process, using modalities such as visual journaling, storytelling, movement, and other forms of creative expression to help explore and express what may feel difficult or unsafe to say out loud, alongside a parts-informed perspective to understand the aspects of you shaped by survival and protection. This work is approached with care and at your pace, allowing healing to unfold in a way that feels safe and supported.

Abuse of any kind should never happen, but when it does, therapy can be a valuable tool in healing. I began my career at a domestic violence and sexual assault shelter, and am trained in evidence based trauma modalities like Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to best address the needs of those impacted by violence.
