Sexual Abuse
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

Sexual Abuse
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.

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
Russell Wilkie
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
Sexual abuse is very upsetting to our sense of self because it affects: self-esteem, body issues, boundaries, betrayal, future sex life, intimacy, and trust to name just a few. Recovery starts with gently and gracefully beginning to love yourself, as you are, and then working through the above issues and others. You can learn to have excellent boundaries and have sex without anxiety and fear.

Healing from sexual abuse requires a safe, paced, and trauma-informed approach.

Sexual Abuse
Robynne OByrne
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I have treated many adult survivors of sexual abuse. Anxiety and depression are extremely common among survivors of sexual trauma. Somatic oriented therapy, combined with analytic psychotherapy and hypnotherapy where appropriate is extremely
effective at helping clients heal the psychic wounds that stem from sexual abuse.

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.

Sexual Abuse
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.
