Indianapolis, Indiana therapist: Dr. Kimberly E. Johnson, psychologist

Sexual Abuse

A significant portion of my client base have experienced childhood and adult sexual abuse. Not infrequently the abuse may be by a family member or someone you know. Surviving the abuse is an important achievement. Being able to confront, process and successfully move forward in life is an important goal that takes sensitivity, trust and an experienced therapist. I strive to provide this to my clients on their path to healing.

Sexual Abuse

James Foley Sexual Misbehavior, Infidelity , Expert 31 Years Experience

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-R, SOTS,

I help persons who engaged in illegal sexual behaviors learn how to never do so again. I also coordinate efforts with defense attorneys, so as to help the clients attorney best defend their client , and I work with that attorney to show the court the client is making real change. In my coordination with the defense attorney, I work on helping the client change distorted thoughts and behaviors so as to present well at their pre-sentencing interview (PSI), to help show the court that a community (not jail) based disposition is possible for that particular client. I have a great track record in assisting attorneys in doing their job of helping their client get the best possible disposition of the case.

Sexual Abuse

Dr. Brittany Jacobson

Psychologist, PhD, CST

It is exhausting to live with the impact of someone else’s choices that were violating, confusing, and terrifying. Even if the trauma happened years ago, it can continue to affect your sense of safety, your relationships, your sexuality, and the way you relate to yourself. You may find yourself constantly on guard, disconnected from your body, overwhelmed by shame or blaming yourself, struggling with trust, unable to sleep well, or wondering why certain situations still trigger such intense emotional or physical reactions. These reactions are your mind and body's attempts to protect you after something that someone never should have chosen to do to you. Finding lasting healing from sexual trauma is about much more than talking through the past. It also involves helping your nervous system recognize that the danger is over. Together we will process your experiences at a pace that feels safe and rebuild a relationship with yourself grounded in compassion, confidence, and self-trust. We will explore your emotions about what happened and how it has affected your thoughts/beliefs, while always respecting your readiness, your boundaries, and your sense of control in the therapy process. Drawing from evidence-based trauma therapies along with mindfulness and mind-body approaches, we'll work to reduce the emotional and physical grip of trauma so it no longer defines your daily life. Whether you're struggling with PTSD symptoms, intimacy, body image, self-worth, anxiety, or feeling disconnected from yourself, therapy can help you move toward greater freedom and healing. As a certified sex therapist, I also help clients recover from the common effects of trauma on sex– including anxiety, avoidance, numbness, pain during sex, or feeling like your body is working against you. Sometimes survivors of sexual trauma find themselves engaging in sexual behaviors that don't align with what they truly want and prioritizing partners’ needs over their own. Therapy can help you learn how to be more present during sex, let go of unhelpful thoughts that get in the way of enjoying it, and experience intimacy in ways that feel safe and fun again. No matter how long it’s been since the trauma happened, recovery is still possible! My goal is to help you feel safe in your own body again and reconnect with the parts of yourself that trauma forced you to leave behind. I will help you create a life that is no longer organized around just surviving. You will rediscover what it’s like to fully live again with greater peace, empowerment, and connection.

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.
