Libby Shaw
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, ATR-BC, LPAT, ACS
Living with the effects of sexual abuse, whether from childhood or adulthood, can feel extremely isolating, stressful, and at times even dehumanizing. Sexual abuse can make a person feel internally fractured. Counseling that focuses on healing your inner self, developing skills to cope with and regulate emotions, and move forward with confidence in your relationships and in yourself can be very successful. We can work together to outline and achieve these goals.

Peter D. Ruffini, Sex & Porn Addiction Expert
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdS, MA, LPC, LPCMH, ACS, EMDRPT-II, CSAT-C
I provide trauma-informed therapy for adults who have experienced sexual abuse or sexual boundary violations. While much of my work focuses on men, I also work with women when clinically appropriate. Treatment is carefully paced, evidence-based, and focused on restoring safety, agency, and emotional regulation.

Dr. Amanda Malak
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist
I specialize in supporting individuals who have experienced sexual abuse by providing a safe, compassionate space to process the trauma and its effects. My approach involves using therapeutic modalities to help people heal, rebuild their sense of safety, and regain control over their lives. I help clients address feelings of shame, guilt, and fear while working through the emotional and psychological impact of abuse. My goal is to empower survivors to rebuild their self-esteem, manage symptoms of trauma, and move forward in a way that supports their overall healing and well-being. Referral to community organizations, like the Survivor's Sanctuary (https://sanctuary.metoomvmt.org/), are also helpful tools for people to use alone or alongside therapy.

Richard Scott, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D.
The impact of sexual abuse can linger long after the event — affecting your sense of safety, trust, self-worth, and relationships. As an adult, you may carry pain or shame in silence, unsure how to begin healing. Therapy offers a safe, supportive space to process your experience at your own pace, rebuild your sense of self, and move toward lasting emotional freedom. You are not alone, and healing is possible. If you're ready to take that step, I’m here help.
