Sexual Abuse
Carrie Gauthier
Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCHt
I am very passionate about helping men and women uncover and process the wounds of sexual abuse. This area is one of the main reasons I entered into this profession; to help uncover repressed memories, process them and authentically release the long held-back emotions and words to the antagonist that must be released to facilitate deep healing. We then have a beautiful forgiveness (if this is available to you) and compassion formula, followed by a chance to grow your inner child up into an emotionally mature adult, and integrate a new core emotional state of love. This is all part of the childhood regression. We show you the way to feel safe in your own mind and comfortable in your own skin again. We will uncover any maladaptive emotions and beliefs attached to the abuse and replace, reframe and rewire them with healthy alternatives. There is also a motivational, inspirational component within the hypnotic programmings to bring the joy back to life. I provide you with tools to reset your nervous system quickly so you have resources for if you feel triggered; this empowers you to emotionally regulate within minutes to avoid spiraling. We work to return your mental, emotional, physical and spiritual state back to homeostasis and empower you with methods to prevent self-sabotage or falling into harmful patterns. Ultimately, we pave the path that is unique for you to a state of inner peace under all circumstances, where you are able to channel your former pain into inspiration and move forward with clarity and confidence with the wisdom gained through your life experiences.

Sexual Abuse
Brent Peak
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Surviving childhood sexual abuse can leave deep emotional wounds that affect how you see yourself, your body, and your relationships. Maybe you struggle with trust, boundaries, or intimacy, feeling disconnected from yourself or others. You might carry shame, self-blame, or guilt, even though you were never at fault. Perhaps you avoid certain situations, experience flashbacks, or feel trapped in patterns of fear, hypervigilance, or emotional numbness. Even when you try to move on, the past can still feel painfully present, shaping how you navigate relationships, self-worth, and even your sense of safety in the world. This isn’t something you should have to carry alone.
Healing is possible. Using Post-Induction Therapy (PIT), I help survivors of childhood sexual abuse unravel the toxic shame and false beliefs that keep them stuck in self-doubt, fear, or emotional disconnection. Many survivors struggle with a deep sense of unworthiness because of what was done to them, but therapy helps separate the past from their identity. With Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), we can reprocess painful memories without reliving the trauma, helping your brain release the emotional charge so those experiences no longer define your present. You deserve to feel safe, whole, and in control of your own body and emotions. Healing doesn’t mean forgetting—it means reclaiming your life, your boundaries, and your sense of self, free from the weight of the past. You are not broken, and you are not alone.

Sexual Abuse
Dr. Kimberly E. Johnson
Psychologist, PsyD, HSPP, APIT
A significant portion of my client base have experienced childhood and adult sexual abuse. Not infrequently the abuse may be by a family member or someone you know. Surviving the abuse is an important achievement. Being able to confront, process and successfully move forward in life is an important goal that takes sensitivity, trust and an experienced therapist. I strive to provide this to my clients on their path to healing.
