Rebecca Phillips, MS, LPC, CCTP, EMDR Therapist in Frisco Texas
Licensed Professional Counselor, Master of Science, LPC, EMDR Therapist, CCTP: Complex Trauma
I have extensive experience in helping individuals who have experienced sexual abuse, understanding how deeply it can affect their sense of safety, trust, and self-worth. The trauma from such experiences often permeates many areas of life, including relationships, mental health, and personal identity. I work with clients to gently process their trauma, helping them reclaim their sense of self, establish healthy boundaries, and move toward healing and empowerment.

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.

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.

Kristin Wright
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
So many people who have experienced sexual abuse feel they need to hide their experiences because they have often been invalidated, shamed, or not believed. There is so much pain and difficult emotions that become overwhelming to handle on your own. With my many years of experience working with sexual abuse survivors, I understand the great courage and strength it takes to be vulnerable and seek out help. I can offer a safe and judgement free space for you to process your pain and help you find the light in your life you have searching for.

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.

Dr. Monte Miller
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I have helped many women and men deal with past abuse — sexual, physical, and emotional. I will listen to your story and validate your feelings, whatever they may be. You were truly a victim, and I do not want to minimize that pain or your traumatic triggers and reactions. However, I do not want you to be a victim forever. I want to have you become empowered, stronger as a result of your recovery. I want you to be in a place where you are free to love without fear. Anything else than freedom, love, and happiness is letting that bastard beat you, and we just can't have that!
A person's sexuality and ability to have healthy relationships can be greatly impaired by sexual abuse, making someone very sexual or very much against sex. Processing this can give you more control over your own sexuality, however that might look like.

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.

Michael J. Salas
Counselor/Therapist, PsyD, LPC-S, LCDC, CSAT, CST
Sex is one of the most intimate parts of a relationship, but when something isn’t working, it can lead to distance, frustration, and shame. As a Certified Sex Therapist with specialized training in helping individuals and couples improve their sexual connection, I offer a space where you can talk openly and work through what’s getting in the way.
Whether you’re dealing with erectile dysfunction, premature or delayed ejaculation, vaginismus, low desire, or pain during sex, these issues can take a toll on both you and your relationship. You’re not alone—and there are ways to work through it. Together, we’ll explore what’s going on emotionally, physically, and relationally, and develop tools to help you feel more connected, confident, and present.
I'm also a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT), and I work with people navigating sexual compulsivity, porn addiction, and out-of-control sexual behaviors. If your relationship with sex feels overwhelming or secretive, therapy can help you gain clarity, control, and a healthier sense of intimacy.
Experiencing sexual abuse can leave deep emotional, physical, and relational scars. You may carry shame, fear, numbness, or confusion long after the event itself. It’s common to feel disconnected from your body, your boundaries, or your sexuality—and to question whether healing is even possible.
I have extensive experience working with survivors of sexual trauma, and I approach this work with care, respect, and patience. I’m trained in EMDR and Somatic Experiencing, both of which help process trauma in ways that go beyond talk therapy and support healing at a nervous system level. As a Certified Sex Therapist, I also help clients reclaim their sense of sexual identity and connection, whether that means re-engaging with intimacy or learning how to feel safe in their own body again.
This is delicate, layered work—and you don’t have to rush it or do it alone. If you're carrying the impact of sexual abuse and are ready to begin healing, I’m here to help you move forward with support, clarity, and compassion.

Marriage and Family Therapist, PHD, LMFT
Sexual abuse leaves us feeling ashamed, guilty, dirty. All these impact how we relate with ourselves, our feelings, and others. I work providing resources to feel towards oneself in a different way, to be more compassionate, loving towards ourselves as we heal from the trauma of the abuse.
