Sexual Abuse
Center for Authentic Life & Relationship, LLC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LPC, LMFT, CPCS, CSAT-S, CAADC, EMDR, CSTOP-Candidate
I specialize in helping survivors of sexual abuse heal from the emotional, relational, and psychological impact of what they have endured. My training in sexual addiction and sexual offender treatment gives me a deeper understanding of abusive patterns, grooming behaviors, secrecy, manipulation, and the dynamics that often leave survivors feeling confused, ashamed, or responsible for what happened. This knowledge informs my work with survivors by helping me provide trauma-informed, compassionate, and effective care that supports safety, clarity, empowerment, and healing.

Sexual Abuse
Monica Buttafava
Counselor/Therapist, M.S., LMHC
Survivors of sexual assault often report feelings of shame and guilt. The negative emotions linked to the trauma often expose child and adolescent victims of sexual abuse to mental health conditions.
Depression, anxiety, PTSD, attachment issues, addiction, personality disruption, and chronic pain can all be conditions that may develop from such traumatic experiences.
Therapy offers a safe, private space to get help without judgments, a place to talk, process, and understand feelings and ultimately reduce negative effects and symptoms.

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.

Amanda Kohl
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, LMHC, CTP
Healing from sexual abuse requires a sense of safety, choice, and respect for your pace. You may still feel disconnected from your body, anxious in relationships, or overwhelmed by memories that surface unexpectedly. I use a trauma-informed, body-based approach including Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) to help you process these experiences so you can feel more grounded, safe, and in control of your life.
