Richard Scott, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D.
The impact of sexual abuse can linger long after the event — affecting your sense of safety, trust, self-worth, and relationships. As an adult, you may carry pain or shame in silence, unsure how to begin healing. Therapy offers a safe, supportive space to process your experience at your own pace, rebuild your sense of self, and move toward lasting emotional freedom. You are not alone, and healing is possible.

Sexual Abuse
Dr. Jeannine Pablo
Psychologist, LP, LCMHC, MLADC
Surviving sexual abuse can leave a profound impact on an individual’s nervous system, emotional regulation, and interpersonal relationships. Utilizing evidence-based, trauma-informed modalities—including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)—I help clients safely process traumatic memories and disrupt survival patterns like hypervigilance, dissociation, and shame. Our clinical work focuses on restoring somatic safety, processing complex trauma, and reclaiming personal autonomy.

Sexual Abuse
Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with adults who are survivors of childhood sexual abuse. Many of the people I see have built full, functioning lives and are often seen as capable, responsible, and reliable by others. Inside, they may carry a private mix of shame, confusion, anger, or grief about what happened, and a sense that they have never really had space to tend to it.
Early abuse can leave traces in many areas of adult life. You might notice difficulty feeling at home in your body; anxiety, numbness, or shutdown in moments of closeness or vulnerability; a persistent sense that you are “too much” or “not enough”; or a tendency to doubt your own perceptions. There may be complicated feelings toward family members who knew, did not know, or minimized what happened, as well as patterns of over‑accommodating, people‑pleasing, or staying in relationships that feel familiar but not truly safe. Sometimes the impact shows up as depression, anxiety, perfectionism, or a feeling of being fundamentally different from others, without always linking it back to your early experiences.
I have worked with survivors of childhood sexual abuse for many years, and this is one of my primary areas of specialization. I know how varied and complex the impact can be. My approach is careful, attuned, and paced to your nervous system. We do not rush into details or push for disclosure. Instead, we focus on helping you feel safer inside your own body and mind, making sense of what happened at a pace that feels manageable, and loosening the grip of shame and self‑blame. Over time, we explore what it means to have real choice, boundaries, and agency in your adult life, including in relationships, work, and family.
My role is to offer a grounded, non‑intrusive space where you do not have to minimize your experience or protect anyone else’s feelings.
