Lisa C. Holder
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, LPC
Sexual abuse can be one of the most debilitating forms of trauma for anyone, but especially children. It causes shame and sets individuals up for poor relationships in the future. Often secrets about sexual abuse are kept which adds to the trauma. This can be passed down through generations. Please reach out to me if you have been traumatized by sexual abuse.

Barbara Magnusson Coffee
Licensed Professional Counselor, Ph.D., LMFT
Sadly, statistics show 1/4 girls were sexually abused and 1/5 boys. It is likely under-reported since victims often feel shame and responsibiity which is not theirs to carry.

Michaela Decker
Counselor/Therapist, LMFT
Frequently, people who have experienced trauma develop extraordinary survival skills. Often the strategies that were critical for survival, are not sustainable long term and thwart the ability to develop satisfying work, family and/or romantic relationships. Therapy provides an opportunity to become "unstuck" and transcend thinking and behavior patterns that are holding you back from realizing your potential. I specialize in the treatment of PTSD, anxiety and depression, and am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). When distress from a disturbing event remains, the upsetting images, thoughts, and emotions may create an overwhelming feeling of being back in that moment. EMDR therapy helps the brain process these memories, and allows normal healing to resume. EMDR therapy is not complete until attention has been brought to the past memories that are contributing to the problem, the present situations that are disturbing, and what skills the needed for the future.
