Sexual Abuse
Kelly L. Dauber
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, EMDR Trained Therapist
Hello, I am Kelly, a licensed professional counselor in the state of New Jersey. I am trained in EMDR [Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing]. I operate with a solution-focused methodology. I provide strategies that assist you to move beyond your current self into your authentic version of yourself. I am naturally inquisitive, empathic, and a wee bit sarcastic. I will teach you how to look at all parts of your life while learning the science behind how the healing process really works. In short-you will learn how to get your mind and body in alignment, attract abundance while healing from past pain.
I will give you the tools and teach you how to apply them to effectively change your life. The end goal: to stop running in circles around the preverbal therapy wheel. The sole intention is to “walk alongside” you as you learn to heal yourself. Are you ready to take the first step in this journey?

Sexual Abuse
Dr. Anna Smith
Psychologist, PsyD, MEd, MA
The impact of sexual abuse or assault can live in the body and in relationships long after the events themselves—showing up as shutdown, hypervigilance, difficulty with touch, trust issues, or disconnection from your own desire. In a trauma-informed, gentle, and empowering space, we work at your pace to process what happened, release shame that doesn’t belong to you, and help you reclaim safety, pleasure, and agency in your body and intimate connections. Healing is possible, and you deserve to feel at home in your sexuality again.

Sexual Abuse
Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with adults who are survivors of childhood sexual abuse. Many of the people I see have built full, functioning lives and are often seen as capable, responsible, and reliable by others. Inside, they may carry a private mix of shame, confusion, anger, or grief about what happened, and a sense that they have never really had space to tend to it.
Early abuse can leave traces in many areas of adult life. You might notice difficulty feeling at home in your body; anxiety, numbness, or shutdown in moments of closeness or vulnerability; a persistent sense that you are “too much” or “not enough”; or a tendency to doubt your own perceptions. There may be complicated feelings toward family members who knew, did not know, or minimized what happened, as well as patterns of over‑accommodating, people‑pleasing, or staying in relationships that feel familiar but not truly safe. Sometimes the impact shows up as depression, anxiety, perfectionism, or a feeling of being fundamentally different from others, without always linking it back to your early experiences.
I have worked with survivors of childhood sexual abuse for many years, and this is one of my primary areas of specialization. I know how varied and complex the impact can be. My approach is careful, attuned, and paced to your nervous system. We do not rush into details or push for disclosure. Instead, we focus on helping you feel safer inside your own body and mind, making sense of what happened at a pace that feels manageable, and loosening the grip of shame and self‑blame. Over time, we explore what it means to have real choice, boundaries, and agency in your adult life, including in relationships, work, and family.
My role is to offer a grounded, non‑intrusive space where you do not have to minimize your experience or protect anyone else’s feelings.
