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.

Amber McKinney-Morgan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW
Healing from sexual abuse requires a safe, paced, and trauma-informed approach. I support clients in processing their experiences, reconnecting with their bodies, and restoring a sense of safety and control. Using modalities like EMDR and somatic therapy, we work toward healing without re-traumatization.

Britt M Berglind
Counselor/Therapist, LPCC, Ph.D
I worked part-time in a rape crisis center. I am therefore very much aware of the consequences that sexual abuse victims suffer. The longtime effect of the abuse can include depression, anxiety, guilt or dysphoria.
There can also be longtime effects of chronic illnesses.

Laura Anderson LPCC, Eff Shame Therapy
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
Sexual abuse reaches into the most private parts of who we are — our bodies, our sense of safety, our relationship with intimacy, our ability to trust ourselves and others. The shame that so often follows belongs to the person who caused the harm, not to you. And yet it lands where it lands, and it stays until something helps it move.
I work with survivors of sexual abuse from a deeply trauma-informed, shame-free perspective using EMDR, Flash Technique, and ketamine-assisted EMDR for those ready to work at that level. This is slow, careful, boundaried work done entirely at your pace — with the goal of returning you to a relationship with your own body and life that feels like yours again.
You deserved protection. You deserve healing now.

Online in Las Cruces, NM
Las Cruces is New Mexico's second-largest city and home to New Mexico State University, sitting in the Mesilla Valley near the US-Mexico border, with a population that is roughly 60% Hispanic or Latino and a mental health landscape shaped by border region experience—immigration stress and family separation, the cross-border family ties that define daily life in the borderlands, and the specific challenges of communities living at the intersection of two countries, cultures, and legal systems. NMSU's counseling center serves its student population, and Mesilla Valley Hospital provides inpatient behavioral health services; a private therapy sector serves the professional community. Common therapy concerns include immigration-related stress and family separation trauma, border identity and bicultural experience, student mental health, economic anxiety in a region with significant poverty, and the mental health dimensions of living in a community where the US-Mexico border is a daily reality rather than a political abstraction.
