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.

Devon Davasher
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CCM, CFSW, Master ART Practitioner
I work with adults healing from sexual abuse and the lasting effects it can have on safety, trust, identity, relationships, and the body. Therapy offers a supportive place to process trauma, strengthen boundaries, reduce shame, and move toward healing at a pace that feels safe and manageable.

Sexual Abuse
Dayna Nelson, PsyD, LP
Psychologist, PsyD, Licensed Psychologist
Many people will experience some form of childhood sexual abuse, sexual harassment, sexual assault, or exploitation. Sexual abuse victims often experience lasting trauma, which can cause a person to live with deep emotional pain, fear, confusion, or posttraumatic stress far after the event has passed. Dr. Nelson is trained in trauma informed care and EMDR to help clients heal and process past sexual abuse and regain their emotional freedom.
In these circumstances, the support, guidance, and assistance of a therapist is fundamental to healing from trauma.

Sexual Abuse
Melanie Collins
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPC, LCMHC, Coach
Sexual abuse can affect far more than memories of what happened; it can shape safety, trust, boundaries, body image, relationships, sexuality, and the ability to feel at home in your own body. I help survivors process these experiences without defining themselves by what was done to them. Therapy moves at your pace and may include rebuilding self-trust, understanding trauma responses, reclaiming boundaries and choice, and exploring intimacy or sexuality when and if that becomes important to you. Healing is not about erasing the past—it is about reducing the power it has to dictate your present.
