Sexual Abuse
Sarah Wagner LMFT Corp
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, MBA
Experiences of sexual abuse can deeply impact emotional safety, attachment, identity, and trust in both yourself and others. I provide a trauma-informed, attachment-based space where your story is honored and healing unfolds at a pace that feels safe.
Using Internal Family Systems (IFS), we gently work with parts that may carry fear, shame, anger, numbness, or self-blame. Through a developmental and Emotionally Focused lens, we explore how early attachment injuries may shape current relational patterns. Therapy focuses on nervous system regulation, restoring boundaries, rebuilding self-trust, and strengthening secure internal attachment.

Sexual Abuse
Mia Turner
Therapist, MA, RYT, ASDCS, LMFT, NPT-C, CMNCS, CMIP
Trauma-informed support for survivors of sexual abuse, sexual assault, coercion, exploitation, boundary violations, unwanted sexual experiences, and other forms of sexual trauma. These experiences can shape far more than memories alone. They may impact the nervous system, sense of safety, identity, relationships, trust, boundaries, sexuality, spirituality, self-worth, and one's relationship with the body.
Sexual trauma is often carried not only in thoughts and emotions, but also in the body itself. It may show up through hypervigilance, dissociation, numbness, chronic tension, difficulty trusting, difficulty identifying needs, feeling disconnected from bodily sensations, challenges with intimacy, shame, self-blame, or a persistent sense of unsafety. Many of these responses reflect the intelligence of a nervous system that adapted in order to survive overwhelming, violating, or unsafe experiences.
My approach is grounded in the belief that healing cannot be rushed, forced, or imposed. Particular care is given to choice, consent, autonomy, pacing, and creating a safe-enough therapeutic space where your experiences, boundaries, and needs are respected. This work honors the reality that healing often unfolds in nonlinear ways and that every survivor's journey is unique.
Using EMDR, somatic therapy, mindfulness, polyvagal-informed practices, parts work, expressive arts, neuropsychotherapy, attachment-focused approaches, and liberation-oriented healing, therapy supports processing traumatic experiences while gently reconnecting with the body, nervous system, emotions, and inner wisdom. Attention is given not only to what happened, but also to the protective strategies, adaptations, and survival responses that emerged in response to trauma.
The goal is not simply to reduce symptoms or move beyond the past. It is often about reclaiming connection with yourself, your body, your voice, your needs, your boundaries, your choices, and your capacity for trust, pleasure, intimacy, and self-determination. Healing is approached with deep respect for your resilience, your pain, your pace, and your right to define what recovery means for you.

Sexual Abuse
Dr. Daniele Levy, Bay Area Cognitive Therapy
Psychologist, PhD, MBA
When working with clients who have experienced sexual abuse, I use Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) to help them process and reframe the trauma. CPT helps individuals identify and challenge unhelpful beliefs related to safety, trust, power, control, intimacy, and self-esteem that often arise after abuse. We work together to explore and challenge these thoughts, facilitating healing and fostering a healthier, more empowered sense of self, while also addressing emotional and cognitive responses tied to the trauma. This approach is designed to promote lasting recovery and improved mental 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.
