Mary Gonzalez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
The effects of sexual abuse can extend far beyond the abuse itself, influencing how you see yourself, relate to others, and move through the world. Whether the abuse occurred in childhood, adolescence, or adulthood, you may experience anxiety, depression, PTSD, shame, guilt, fear, emotional numbness, intrusive memories, nightmares, difficulty trusting others, or feeling disconnected from your body. These responses are common reactions to trauma—they are not signs of weakness or personal failure.
At Holding Space Therapy, we provide a safe, compassionate, and trauma-informed environment where you can begin healing at a pace that feels right for you. We understand that talking about sexual abuse can feel overwhelming, and there is never pressure to share more than you are ready to discuss. Building safety, trust, and emotional stability is an essential part of the healing process. Using evidence-based approaches such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness, grounding techniques, and other trauma-informed interventions, we'll work together to process traumatic memories, reduce distressing symptoms, challenge shame-based beliefs, strengthen coping skills, and help your nervous system move out of survival mode.
Healing from sexual abuse is about more than reducing symptoms—it's about reclaiming your voice, restoring your sense of safety, rebuilding trust in yourself and others, and reconnecting with your strengths, identity, and self-worth. Throughout therapy, you'll be supported in developing healthy boundaries, increasing self-compassion, and creating relationships built on safety, respect, and mutual care. While the impact of sexual abuse can be profound, it does not define who you are or what your future can hold. With compassionate support and evidence-based treatment, healing is possible. You deserve a space where your experiences are honored, your story is respected, and your recovery is supported every step of the way.

Emma Esper
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPCC
I have experience in working with both covert and overt sexual abuse, stemming from childhood and/or adult experiences. There continues to be a lot of shame and stigma in coming forward and sharing these stories of abuse. I am there to help guide you to sharing your story, processing shame, and increasing feelings of hope. You are not what happened to you, you are what you choose to become.

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.
