Brent Peak
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Surviving childhood sexual abuse can leave deep emotional wounds that affect how you see yourself, your body, and your relationships. Maybe you struggle with trust, boundaries, or intimacy, feeling disconnected from yourself or others. You might carry shame, self-blame, or guilt, even though you were never at fault. Perhaps you avoid certain situations, experience flashbacks, or feel trapped in patterns of fear, hypervigilance, or emotional numbness. Even when you try to move on, the past can still feel painfully present, shaping how you navigate relationships, self-worth, and even your sense of safety in the world. This isn’t something you should have to carry alone.
Healing is possible. Using Post-Induction Therapy (PIT), I help survivors of childhood sexual abuse unravel the toxic shame and false beliefs that keep them stuck in self-doubt, fear, or emotional disconnection. Many survivors struggle with a deep sense of unworthiness because of what was done to them, but therapy helps separate the past from their identity. With Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), we can reprocess painful memories without reliving the trauma, helping your brain release the emotional charge so those experiences no longer define your present. You deserve to feel safe, whole, and in control of your own body and emotions. Healing doesn’t mean forgetting—it means reclaiming your life, your boundaries, and your sense of self, free from the weight of the past. You are not broken, and you are not alone.

Jeni Gutke
Licensed Professional Counselor, MC, LPC
Abuse of all kinds creates negative cognitions and can negatively affect ones feeling of empowerment in the world, in the body and in relationships. Addressing sexual abuse through interventions, such as hypnotherapy, work with internal family systems, DBT and EMDR are very powerful in allowing us to regain the ability to be in our bodies, allow emotions to process and clear, and heal with self compassion and unburdening the past.

Michaela Decker
Counselor/Therapist, LMFT
Frequently, people who have experienced trauma develop extraordinary survival skills. Often the strategies that were critical for survival, are not sustainable long term and thwart the ability to develop satisfying work, family and/or romantic relationships. Therapy provides an opportunity to become "unstuck" and transcend thinking and behavior patterns that are holding you back from realizing your potential. I specialize in the treatment of PTSD, anxiety and depression, and am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). When distress from a disturbing event remains, the upsetting images, thoughts, and emotions may create an overwhelming feeling of being back in that moment. EMDR therapy helps the brain process these memories, and allows normal healing to resume. EMDR therapy is not complete until attention has been brought to the past memories that are contributing to the problem, the present situations that are disturbing, and what skills the needed for the future.

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.

Tamara McCord
Licensed Professional Counselor, LMHC, LCAC
We will create grounding techniques to reduce flashbacks or triggers, along with using EMDR. While we cannot change what has happened, we can remove anxiety when we think about the abuse, as well as see ourselves more positively.
