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.

Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed therapy for individuals who have experienced sexual abuse and related trauma, including the lasting emotional effects such as shame, guilt, worthlessness, anxiety, depression, fear, emotional numbness, and difficulty with trust, relationships, and self-esteem. These experiences can have a profound and long-term impact on emotional well-being, identity, and overall quality of life.
Brad takes a holistic and trauma-focused approach to healing from sexual abuse, providing a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental environment where clients can process their experiences at their own pace. Therapy is designed to help clients reduce emotional distress, restore a sense of safety and control, and begin rebuilding self-worth and emotional stability.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, emotional regulation strategies, and holistic therapeutic approaches to support deep and meaningful healing. Treatment focuses on processing traumatic memories, reducing symptoms of distress, and addressing the underlying emotional impact that often persists long after the abuse has occurred.
Sexual trauma often requires specialized, trauma-focused treatment. While supportive talk therapy can be helpful, deeper healing typically involves addressing the nervous system responses, emotional wounds, and core beliefs formed through the traumatic experience. Brad’s approach is designed to support this deeper level of healing and long-term recovery.
Therapy is collaborative and individualized, allowing clients to feel safe, respected, and empowered throughout the healing process. The focus is on helping clients regain emotional balance, strengthen resilience, and develop healthier ways of relating to themselves and others.
Healing is possible. With the right support, clients can move beyond the impact of sexual abuse, release feelings of shame and self-blame, and rebuild a stronger, more grounded sense of identity, safety, and self-worth.
