Karen E Hellenberg
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
Sexual abuse is traumatic and causes feelings of shame, low self-worth and many other internal questions that leave us feeling alone and trapped. Overall sexual abuse can cause trauma in a persons life. I can help you identify, explore and heal from this trauma via psychotherapy and EMDR.

Amanda S. Vaught
Psychologist, PsyD
I offer trauma-informed therapy for survivors of sexual abuse, providing a safe, supportive space to begin healing. My approach focuses on restoring safety, trust, and connection after trauma. Together, we work gently to process painful experiences, reduce shame, and rebuild a sense of control and self-worth. Using evidence-based trauma therapy, I help clients manage triggers, strengthen boundaries, and move toward empowerment, emotional resilience, and a renewed sense of wholeness in their lives.

Stacy Lepley
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, CBC
Surviving sexual trauma can leave you feeling deeply disconnected from your body, your boundaries, and your sense of safety in the world. Healing from this profound violation requires a highly sensitive, paced approach that honors your ultimate autonomy. I offer a gentle, somatic-informed space where you are completely in control of your story. Together, we will work to safely process the trauma, release stored physical distress, and steadily reclaim your body as a safe home.
