Sexual Abuse
Joanna Vergoth
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, NCPsyA
Sexual abuse can profoundly impact identity, relationships, and one’s sense of safety in both body and world. I specialize in working with adults healing from childhood and adult sexual trauma, including complex and developmental trauma. Using Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), and somatic approaches, we gently process traumatic experiences while restoring empowerment and bodily autonomy. Sessions are paced with care, emphasizing stabilization, integration, and the rebuilding of trust — both internally and relationally.

Sexual Abuse
Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In working with patients who have experienced sexual abuse, I offer specialized support tailored to their needs. This involves creating a safe and compassionate environment for them to explore their experiences and emotions. Through therapy, we address trauma symptoms, such as anxiety, depression, or PTSD, and develop coping strategies for managing triggers and flashbacks. I also provide education about trauma and its effects, as well as guidance on self-care and building resilience. The therapeutic process focuses on empowering survivors, promoting healing, and restoring a sense of agency and control over their lives.
