Sexual Abuse
Victoria Labonte
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.S., LPC
Sexual abuse is one of the most difficult experiences for a person. No matter if it happened as a child or as an adult, the effects of sexual abuse, assault, and molestation can be severe and long-lasting. It can be difficult to know where to begin to process sexual abuse. During therapy, sexual abuse and traumas can be focused on when the individual is ready to address it. Many clients I have worked with have experienced sexual abuse in their lives, with many who had experienced multiple sexual traumas. There are many effective therapies, such as CBT, EMDR, and other interventions for sexual abuse, trauma, and PTSD.

Sexual Abuse
Cynthia Leslie

The trauma of sexual abuse can leave scars and affect how one shows up in the world. Dealing with secondary issues, such as lack of trust, fear, and other problems can help.

Sexual Abuse
Grief Recovery Center
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LPC, LCSW, LMFT, LP, LPA-IPA
Experiencing sexual abuse can be deeply traumatic and life-altering. Survivors often carry feelings of shame, fear, anger, anxiety, or powerlessness — emotions that do not simply fade with time. Healing requires safety, support, and compassionate care.
At Grief Recovery Center in Houston, our licensed therapists provide confidential, trauma-informed therapy for children, adolescents, adults, and families impacted by sexual abuse. We create a safe, nonjudgmental space where survivors can process their experiences, rebuild self-worth, and regain a sense of control.
Sexual abuse can affect every area of life, including relationships, intimacy, trust, and family dynamics. Our therapists use individualized, evidence-based approaches to help clients work through trauma at their own pace and begin restoring stability and empowerment.
You do not have to carry this alone. When you are ready to talk, we are here to listen — with care, respect, and understanding.
Call or text 832-413-2410 to schedule a confidential consultation. Healing is possible, and support is available when you’re ready.
15 Years Experience
Online in New Orleans, LA Louisiana
New Orleans carries deep collective trauma from Hurricane Katrina and subsequent flooding events, and therapists specializing in disaster recovery, PTSD, and community resilience remain in strong demand. The city's culture of celebration and togetherness can mask significant individual struggles with addiction, grief, and depression, and therapists here often work at the intersection of joy, loss, and survival. New Orleans' distinct cultural identity — rooted in African American, Creole, and Caribbean traditions — means culturally grounded and community-engaged therapy is particularly valued. Tulane Medical Center and University Medical Center New Orleans provide institutional mental health resources alongside a network of independent practitioners serving Uptown, Mid-City, and the Marigny.
