Sexual Abuse therapists in Monument, Colorado CO
Jimi Katsis
Counselor/Therapist, MA psych, Dip SW
Experiencing sexual abuse can be a traumatic and life-altering event, and it can have a significant impact on an individual's mental and emotional well-being. As a therapist, I specialize in helping individuals who have been affected by sexual abuse.
I use evidence-based therapies such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT), and Dialectical Behaviour therapy (DBT) which have been proven to be effective in treating the effects of sexual abuse.
CBT is a form of therapy that helps individuals identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors that may be contributing to their emotional distress. TF-CBT is a specific type of CBT that is designed to help individuals who have experienced traumatic events such as sexual abuse.
In therapy sessions, we will work together to understand the dynamics of the abuse, and develop strategies to help you process and heal from the trauma. I will also help you to set realistic goals and work towards a positive future.
Sexual abuse can be a difficult and overwhelming experience, but it is possible to heal and move forward. I am here to help you through this process, and I encourage you to reach out for help.

Kathleen Shook
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
If you are here to address and work through sexual abuse, first I want you to know how brave you are. Sexual trauma can be incredibly painful to accept and talk about, and therefore, I strive to give my clients full control in the therapeutic space when sexual abuse is the reason for attending therapy. This means you get to talk about it at your own pace. It is never required. And if you are ever ready to process through your experience, I will provide you with a space filled with acceptance, compassion, and respect for your courage.
