Sexual Abuse
Stephanie Brumfield
Therapist, LCSW
Sexual abuse, especially in childhood, is more common than most people want to admit, and every survivor’s relationship with their memories is different. Some people have always remembered what happened. For others, memories come back in pieces, or the first sign is a body reaction, a dream they can’t shake, or grief without a clear starting point. All of it is valid here, and we go at your pace.
A lot of this work is bringing back the parts of you that had to leave to survive, through parts work and soul retrieval. Part of healing is reclaiming your body and your sexuality on your own terms, with your own choice, consent, and pleasure, and feeling alive in your body again.

Sexual Abuse
Chris Tickner
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, MFT
Recovering from sexual abuse is one of the hardest things we can do. It requires a great deal of courage, support, and patience. I have been working with men, women, and children who were sexually abused to overcome the devasting impact it can have. Research tells us that reaching out for support of sexual trauma is really hard. I want you to know if you do reach out, you can get help, and you will recover. Over the past several years, the field of psychology and traumatology has developed new and powerful ways to treat the multiple problems associated with sexual abuse. This stuff works. You don't have to suffer any longer.

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.
