Sexual Abuse
Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Sexual abuse is often spoken about in ways that are either too clinical or too minimized—leaving little room for the actual impact it has on your body, your sense of safety, your relationships, and how you move through the world. Many survivors carry layers of confusion, shame, anger, or disconnection, especially when what happened was not named, was dismissed, or was normalized in some way. Cultural, familial, and systemic dynamics can make this even more complex—shaping whether you felt believed, supported, or able to speak about it at all.
At Nour Counseling, we approach this work with care, pacing, and a deep respect for your autonomy. We don’t rush you into retelling or reliving experiences before you’re ready. We offer S.A.F.E. EMDR (Somatic and Attachment-Focused EMDR), which is especially relevant for sexual trauma because it prioritizes safety, stabilization, and the body’s response to trauma—not just the memory itself. Sexual abuse often lives in the nervous system as much as in the narrative, and this approach allows us to process trauma in a way that is more contained, less overwhelming, and attuned to your capacity in the moment.
Alongside this, we help you rebuild a sense of safety in your body, strengthen boundaries, and make sense of how the impact of the abuse may still be showing up in your life. We also name the cultural and systemic factors that shape how sexual abuse is experienced and responded to, so you’re not carrying that context alone. This work is not about pushing you to “move on”—it’s about helping you reconnect with yourself in a way that feels safer, more grounded, and more your own.

Sexual Abuse
Bobby Newell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, SEP
I specialize in supporting individuals who have experienced sexual abuse, offering a safe, confidential, and nonjudgmental space to begin healing at your own pace. Experiences like this can impact your sense of safety, trust, and connection to your body and relationships. Together, we focus on gently processing what you’ve been through while building a sense of stability, control, and self-trust. My approach is trauma-informed and integrates both emotional and body-based techniques, helping you move out of survival mode and toward a place of greater safety, strength, and empowerment.

Sexual Abuse
Dr. George Lough
Psychologist, Ph.D., S.E.P.
Sexual abuse has significant negative emotional consequences that can last throughout one's whole life. Processing the abuse, and all the contradictory feelings that result from it, is essential for our healing. I have worked with many clients who have been the victims of sexual abuse.

Sexual Abuse
Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Sexual abuse often creates very painful symptoms and is something for which I use a therapy called Prolonged Exposure (PE). In this therapy, we will revisit traumatic situations, process painful emotions, and change unhelpful beliefs about yourself and the world around you as a result of your trauma. People are often amazed at how quickly this treatment can work and by the very meaningful change that can result. For these reasons, this is one of my favorite treatments to provide.
