Patricia Fahmy
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
The effects of sexual abuse can continue long after the experience itself has ended.
You may struggle with trust, shame, anxiety, self-worth, boundaries, emotional overwhelm, or difficulty feeling safe in relationships and intimacy.
Many survivors carry these burdens silently for years.
I provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can process what you've been through, reduce its ongoing impact, reconnect with yourself, and move toward healing at a pace that feels safe, supportive, and empowering. I help you rebuild trust in yourself, strengthen your sense of safety, and create healthier, more fulfilling relationships.

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.

Marley Cote
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, MS
Shame. Disgust. Betrayal. Terror. Panic. Helplessness. Rage. These are the common emotions that haunt or plague many survivors of sexual abuse. Further, sexual abuse can leave survivors feeling fragmented and dehumanized. These emotions are often only one part of struggling to survive, with flashbacks and trauma responses often frustrating or flooding survivors. Many survivors often wonder if they will ever feel "normal" again after what has happened, if it is even possible to find safety again within and outside of themselves. In my work with survivors, my clients discover what it means to be grounded again within their bodies, to find their bodies safe again, and to release trauma that has limited them for so long.

Dr. Rebecca Scott, Psy.D
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist, Certified in Holistic Health
I can provide support to patients who are struggling with sexual abuse both past and current. I provide many different types of modalities and encourage patients to choose the path they feel most comfortable with. Recalling all the details can be further traumatizing and research suggests in many cases not necessary.
