Joycelyn Stallworth
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
I've worked with clients to reframe the narrative of victim to warrior, and alter their thoughts of shame and guilt to acceptance, love, and forgiveness. I assist clients to be empowered and no longer held back from their circumstances as they realize their abuse does not define them however it will be apart of their story.

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.

Reina Peterson
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, AMFT, Registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist
In therapy for past sexual abuse survivors, I offer a safe and confidential space where you can explore your experiences, emotions, and concerns at your own pace. Together, we'll address the impact of trauma on your life, relationships, and sense of self. Through empathetic listening and trauma-informed techniques, we'll work towards healing, processing difficult emotions, and rebuilding a sense of safety and empowerment. My goal is to support you in finding strength, resilience, and healing as you navigate your journey towards recovery and reclaiming your sense of well-being.
