Sexual Abuse
Carrie Gauthier
Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCHt
I am very passionate about helping men and women uncover and process the wounds of sexual abuse. This area is one of the main reasons I entered into this profession; to help uncover repressed memories, process them and authentically release the long held-back emotions and words to the antagonist that must be released to facilitate deep healing. We then have a beautiful forgiveness (if this is available to you) and compassion formula, followed by a chance to grow your inner child up into an emotionally mature adult, and integrate a new core emotional state of love. This is all part of the childhood regression. We show you the way to feel safe in your own mind and comfortable in your own skin again. We will uncover any maladaptive emotions and beliefs attached to the abuse and replace, reframe and rewire them with healthy alternatives. There is also a motivational, inspirational component within the hypnotic programmings to bring the joy back to life. I provide you with tools to reset your nervous system quickly so you have resources for if you feel triggered; this empowers you to emotionally regulate within minutes to avoid spiraling. We work to return your mental, emotional, physical and spiritual state back to homeostasis and empower you with methods to prevent self-sabotage or falling into harmful patterns. Ultimately, we pave the path that is unique for you to a state of inner peace under all circumstances, where you are able to channel your former pain into inspiration and move forward with clarity and confidence with the wisdom gained through your life experiences.

Sexual Abuse
James C. Carpenter, PhD, ABPP
Psychologist, PhD (Clinical Psychology, Ohio State U), Board Certified in Clinical Psychology (ABPP), PSYPACT
I gradually and not too happily became an expert in treating sexual abuse -- especially early abuse in childhood -- through working intensely with so many people who have presented with those issues. I understand the suggestibility of memory, and I never suggest or over-lead clients to these possible traumas. But they often enough present themselves indisputably into therapy work as it becomes deeper and safer. I have had and given a lot of training in this area and have a big toolbox of approaches at my disposal in working on this very delicate and important material.

Sexual Abuse
Maggie Reynolds
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, EMDR Certified, NCC
I offer empathetic, non-judgmental support for those who have experienced sexual abuse, whether it happened recently, long ago, or over multiple periods of your life. Sexual trauma can be devastating and can deeply impact how you see yourself, your body, and your ability to feel safe and trust others. Healing is possible, but it often takes time, patience, and the steady support of a healthy therapeutic relationship. Together, we’ll gently explore and process what happened, understand how it continues to affect you today, and work toward rebuilding safety, self-trust, and a sense of empowerment as you move forward.
