Sexual Abuse therapists in Monterey, California CA
Rory Valentine Diller
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., LMFT Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist #139783
I believe our sexuality is intertwined with our spirituality... it is sacred and often connected to the most vulnerable and tender parts of our mind, body and soul. When this is violated and disgraced by violence and abuse, survivors face wounding that cuts right to the core. Survivors may struggle deeply with shame, rage, grief, fear, injustice, relationships, sexual functioning, and symptoms of PTSD. I use body-based therapies and my own lived experience wisdom as a survivor to create a safe, empathic space for clients to recover and heal in the wake of sexual trauma.

Dr. Kelly Smith
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Have you or your child gone through an experience of abuse and need support to get to the other side? Is anger, sleeplessness, worries, dropping job or school grades, poor relationships (or worries that this will be a problem one day), or blaming yourself an ongoing part of your experience? Walking down the street reacting to people who smell like, look like, or sound like them. This is normal unless you have processed what happened. Living like this doesn't have to be the new normal. It is possible to go on to have healthy relationships, sleep through the night, be confident out in the world, and do well in life.

Erika Shershun
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I'm passionate about helping survivors of sexual abuse to heal. I don't want others to spend years and years as I did, trying to get the support they need. For this reason, my work focusses on eliminating your symptoms and getting you the results you want. Some therapist say we never heal, that is not my experience. I'm the author of the Healing Sexual Trauma Workbook (available in four languages), and the Healing Sexual Trauma Guided Journal will be released in fall 2024. My Sexual Trauma Clinical Training course for therapists is available through PESI, and the Healing Sexual Trauma Course for survivors will be available sometime in 2024 at HealingSexualTrauma.com
