Sexual Abuse
Dr. Cierra Listermann
Psychologist, Ph.D., HSP-P
The effects of sexual abuse can impact a person’s sense of safety, trust, relationships, body image, and beliefs about themselves long after the abuse has ended. I provide trauma therapy to help survivors process their experiences, address shame and self-blame, understand trauma responses, and begin rebuilding a sense of empowerment, safety, and self-worth.

Sexual Abuse
Chelsie Ciminelli
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Holistic Health Practitioner
I support individuals who have experienced sexual abuse or sexual trauma and are navigating the lasting emotional, relational, and physical effects of those experiences. My approach centers on creating a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where you can move at your own pace and remain in control of your healing process. Together, we can gently explore how trauma may have affected your relationship with yourself, your body, your emotions, boundaries, trust, and relationships while developing greater nervous-system regulation and a sense of safety within yourself. My work is focused not only on processing what happened, but on helping you reconnect with your inherent worth, reclaim your sense of agency, and develop a relationship with yourself and your body that feels more safe, empowered, and whole.

Sexual Abuse
Sabina Mauro
Psychologist, PsyD
Experiences of sexual abuse can profoundly affect a person's sense of safety, trust, identity, and connection with others. The effects may continue long after the experience itself, sometimes appearing as anxiety, shame, emotional numbness, difficulty with boundaries, or challenges in relationships. I specialize in helping survivors understand and address the psychological impact of trauma through compassionate, individualized, evidence-based treatment. Using approaches such as Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Prolonged Exposure (PE), and trauma-focused cognitive behavioral interventions, we work at a pace that respects your readiness and needs. Therapy is not about forcing you to revisit painful memories before you are ready. It is about helping you regain a sense of choice, rebuild trust in yourself, and recognize that what happened to you does not define who you are.
