Sexual Abuse
Alethea Gard'ner, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
Unfortunately, sexual abuse is way too common in our world. It often leads to traumatic responses not limited to difficulty in relationships, negative self image, shame, blame, and depression. Working through the abuse can be very empowering and change the way you view yourself. I have been privileged to work with many women and men as they process these memories and regain themselves.

Sexual Abuse
Dr. Sven Schild
Psychologist, PhD, SEP, TCC
My approach to working with survivors of sexual abuse involves integrating Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Somatic Experiencing (SE). ACT helps clients process their experiences and accept their emotions without judgment, while committing to actions that support their healing and well-being. EMDR is used to process and resolve traumatic memories associated with the abuse, reducing their emotional impact and fostering cognitive and emotional healing. SE addresses the physiological effects of trauma, helping clients release stored tension and restore a sense of safety and balance in their bodies. This comprehensive approach aims to empower survivors, support their recovery, and enhance their overall emotional and physical well-being.

Lisa Paer
Counselor/Therapist, LMFT, LPCC, EMDR Certified
I offer specialized therapy for survivors of sexual abuse, whether it happened in childhood or adulthood. Sexual abuse can have lasting effects on your mental health, self-esteem, relationships, and sexuality. It can cause you to feel shame, guilt, anger, fear, or numbness. You may also struggle with flashbacks, nightmares, anxiety, depression, or PTSD. I can help you heal from the trauma of sexual abuse and reclaim your life. My approach is based on a technique called EMDR, which stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. EMDR is a proven method that can help you process your traumatic memories and reduce their negative impact on your present and future. It can help you feel more empowered, resilient, and hopeful. I’m a compassionate and respectful therapist who will create a safe and supportive space for you to work through your trauma, rebuild your trust, and enhance your well-being.
