Sarah Gersick
Psychologist, Ph.D.
When we experience abuse, it creates patterns that make it hard to cope with new stressors in a healthy way. It helps to have a place to talk through what is happening in your life today while also working to understand how old wounds are interfering in the present. I am an experienced psychologist who can help you process the trauma with psychodynamic work and EMDR, so you can reduce the distress you are feeling now, and make deep changes that lead to better coping in the future.

Dr. Kelsi Clayson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
The effects of sexual abuse can linger long after the experience itself, shaping the way you see yourself, your relationships, and the world around you. You may struggle with trust, feel disconnected from your body, or experience shame that doesn’t belong to you. Maybe certain memories surface when you least expect them, or you find yourself avoiding situations that feel too vulnerable or triggering. However it shows up, know that your response is valid—your mind and body have worked hard to protect you.
Healing from sexual abuse is not about "just moving on" but about reclaiming your sense of safety, autonomy, and self-worth. In our work together, we will move at your pace, creating a space where you feel supported, understood, and in control of your own healing process. You are not defined by what happened to you, and you do not have to carry this alone. With care and intention, we can work toward healing, self-compassion, and the ability to fully step into your life on your terms.
