Recognizing the profound and personal impact of sexual abuse, we approach each person's journey with empathy, discretion, and professionalism.
Therapeutic Approaches for Healing
* Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to address harmful thought patterns and beliefs resulting from abuse, promoting healthier and more adaptive cognition.
* Somatic Experiencing to help survivors reconnect with their bodies and manage the physical symptoms of trauma.
* Group Counseling where individuals can share their stories and gain support from others with similar experiences in a safe, moderated setting.
* Education to assist survivors in understanding the effects of sexual abuse and the process of trauma recovery.

* Assist survivors in acknowledging and processing their experiences of abuse.
* Enable individuals to develop effective coping strategies for dealing with the emotional and psychological aftermath.

* Rebuild a sense of safety, trust, and control that may have been disrupted by the abuse.
* Empower survivors to establish and maintain healthy boundaries in relationships.
* Provide support in developing a positive sense of identity and self-worth beyond the experience of abuse.

Sexual Abuse
Sandra Lashley
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Because I have worked with women in treatment for many years, I have found that a history of sexual abuse is sadly, not rare. Whether someone has had a single traumatic incident in their past or experienced a chronic pattern of abuse, taking the first step to seek treatment is a courageous and vitally important step. Every individual's process is unique and the journey to healing can only be done with a therapeutic foundation of safety and deep trust, which is always the foundation I aim to create with all of my patients.

Sexual Abuse
Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Sexual abuse often creates very painful symptoms and is something for which I use a therapy called Prolonged Exposure (PE). In this therapy, we will revisit traumatic situations, process painful emotions, and change unhelpful beliefs about yourself and the world around you as a result of your trauma. People are often amazed at how quickly this treatment can work and by the very meaningful change that can result. For these reasons, this is one of my favorite treatments to provide.
