Sexual Abuse therapists in Port Saint John, Florida FL
Sexual Abuse
Ellen Fontaine
Therapist, MSW, Registered Clinical Social Work Intern
My approach with trauma is to make connections with how it is affecting your current life. Clients are often surprised to learn some of the symptoms that come with trauma and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. Some of those symptoms include anxiety, intrusive thoughts, guilt, social isolation, loss of pleasure, hypervigilance, and self-destructive behaviors (to name a few). Although this can seem overwhelming, I use trauma-informed approaches and a trauma reprocessing therapy similar to EMDR.

Sexual Abuse
Christina Andino
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
In my role as a therapist specializing in sexual abuse and trauma, I am here to assist survivors in addressing symptoms such as anxiety, depression, or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The therapeutic process is a transformative journey that aids in reclaiming a sense of self-worth and propelling survivors towards post-traumatic growth.
Survivors of sexual abuse bear immense pain and trauma, often leaving enduring emotional and psychological scars. Therapy emerges as a potent tool, enabling survivors to embark on a healing path and regain control over their lives.
Within the therapeutic space, survivors find a safe and supportive environment to process their experiences, validate their emotions, and develop coping strategies. Through this process, survivors gain a deeper understanding of the impact of abuse on their mental health, build resilience, and acquire the skills to establish healthy boundaries. The aim is to empower survivors on their journey towards healing and recovery.

Sexual Abuse
Dr. Adam Shafer
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
When the foundation of trust shaken (if not feeling broken) through experiences of trauma, the approach to restoring one's life must always be one of sensitivity, patience, and compassion. Without this, there will always be a risk that it will never feel safe enough to heal.
