Sexual Abuse
Nicole Houde
Pre-Licensed Professional
I work with individuals who have experienced sexual abuse by providing a safe, supportive, and trauma-informed space to process their experiences at a pace that feels comfortable. Survivors may experience a range of responses, including anxiety, shame, difficulty trusting others, or feeling disconnected from emotions or the body. In therapy, I use a compassionate, client-centered approach that incorporates Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) to help make sense of unhelpful beliefs related to the trauma, along with building coping skills and emotional regulation strategies. The focus is on supporting healing, strengthening resilience, and helping you regain a sense of control, self-trust, and empowerment in your life.

Sexual Abuse
Bergen Counseling Collective
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
What happened to you was not your fault. Whatever you did to survive, however you've coped, made sense given what you were facing. But the effects don't stay in the past. They show up in how you relate to your body, how you experience intimacy, how you trust or struggle to trust. Healing from sexual abuse is possible, but it requires a therapist who understands trauma deeply and can create a space where you feel genuinely safe. We won't push you to disclose more than you're ready to share. We'll move at your pace, helping you reclaim what was taken from you. Telehealth throughout Illinois. BCBS PPO and Aetna accepted.

Sexual Abuse
Maggie Reynolds
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, EMDR Certified, NCC
I offer empathetic, non-judgmental support for those who have experienced sexual abuse, whether it happened recently, long ago, or over multiple periods of your life. Sexual trauma can be devastating and can deeply impact how you see yourself, your body, and your ability to feel safe and trust others. Healing is possible, but it often takes time, patience, and the steady support of a healthy therapeutic relationship. Together, we’ll gently explore and process what happened, understand how it continues to affect you today, and work toward rebuilding safety, self-trust, and a sense of empowerment as you move forward.

Sexual Abuse
Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
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.

Sexual Abuse
Donald Glenn
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC
Sexual abuse is a specific trauma that affects one's relationship to self as well as to others. This requires a delicate and intentional approach rooted in training and experience. I encourage clients to consider EMDR as part of their treatment plan, as it is a validated treatment modality for all traumas, including SA. EMDR allows clients to process trauma in a safe, more controlled way, while allowing for more rapid relief of symptoms.
