Sexual Abuse
Debra Younger
Counselor/Therapist, LPCC, LPC, LMHC, CCPT
Nearly half of women (45.1%) in the United States experienced some form of contact sexual violence in their lifetimes and more than 1 in 6 men (16.9%) in the U.S. experienced some form of contact sexual violence in their lifetimes (NSVRC 2026). As can be seen by these numbers, sexual abuse affects both men and women. If you are a survivor of contact sexual violence and are looking for help, as a trauma informed therapist using an integrated approach of EMDR and Internal Family Systems, I can help. Please reach out for a free 15 minute consultation call to see if I might be able to help you.

Sexual Abuse
Jessica Oliver, Aspire Counseling
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
Sexual abuse is a unique form of trauma. Our founder specializes in treating PTSD caused by sexual abuse, rape or other forms of sexual violence and has brought on other therapists who do similar work. We've purposefully created a safe environment in our office for you to recover. We offer three different types of interventions that have been proven to be very effective in helping people recover from sexual abuse. One of those therapies, Cognitive Processing Therapy, was originally developed specifically for sexual abuse survivors.

Sexual Abuse
Christina Song
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT-S
I work with survivors of sexual abuse from a trauma-informed, non-blaming, and empowerment-focused perspective. Sexual abuse can have profound impacts on self-trust, boundaries, intimacy, and the nervous system, and each survivor’s experience is unique. In therapy, we move at your pace, centering safety, consent, and your autonomy in deciding what feels manageable to address.
Our work may include processing trauma, exploring its impact on relationships and self-concept, rebuilding a sense of safety in your body and mind, and strengthening boundaries. Therapy is a space to reclaim your voice, rebuild trust in yourself and others, and develop resilience and coping strategies that support healing on your terms.
