Dr. Cheryl D La Rotta
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Ph.D, LMHC
I offer expert clinical treatment for survivors of sexual violence and childhood sexual abuse. Specializing in Complex PTSD (C-PTSD) and attachment trauma, I utilize EMDR and Clinical Hypnotherapy to alleviate the debilitating symptoms of trauma, including intrusive thoughts and emotional numbness. My practice is a safe, non-judgmental space where your pace is honored and your healing is prioritized. You are not defined by what happened to you; let’s work together to build the future you deserve.

Mary Mesiha
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
Experiencing sexual abuse can deeply affect how you see yourself and how safe you feel in the world. Healing from this kind of trauma takes time, patience, and a safe, supportive space. In therapy, we’ll move at your pace as you process what happened, rebuild trust, and reconnect with your sense of safety and self-worth. You are not defined by what was done to you, and together we’ll work toward healing, empowerment, and reclaiming your voice.

Rachele Epp
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, EMDRIA Certified Therapist™
You don't have to continue to carry the pain of what has happened to you. There is freedom from the distress and negative beliefs that cause the pain of what happened to persist. EMDR therapy helps the brain reprocess the trauma so that it no longer controls you. In our time together, you will find deep, inner-healing and build resilience to leave the past and find hope in your future.

Brittany Speed, Hudson Valley Psychology
Psychologist, PhD
Experiences of sexual abuse can have lasting effects on how you see yourself, relate to others, and experience safety and trust. You may find yourself struggling with anxiety, shame, guilt, intrusive memories, or feeling disconnected from yourself and the people around you. Whatever your experiences have been, you deserve support, and seeking help can be an important step toward healing. I specialize in evidence-based trauma treatment, including Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) and Prolonged Exposure (PE). I tailor treatment to your individual needs, experiences, and goals, creating a collaborative space where you can work through the impact of trauma at a pace that feels manageable. Together, we can work to reduce the distress associated with past experiences, challenge beliefs that may be keeping you stuck, and help you reconnect with a sense of safety, self-trust, and control over your life. Healing is possible, and you don't have to navigate it alone.
