Sexual Abuse
Natasha Lacey
Counselor/Therapist, LPCC-S
Experiences of sexual abuse can affect safety, trust, relationships, boundaries, self-worth, and connection with your own body. Healing does not require you to move faster than you are ready to move. I use a trauma-informed approach that prioritizes choice, safety, stabilization, and control while helping clients process experiences and reduce the ways trauma continues to affect their present lives.

Sexual Abuse
Shauntae Walker
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC-S
The effects of sexual abuse can linger long after the experience itself, impacting trust, relationships, self-worth, and emotional well-being. You don't have to carry that burden alone. I provide a safe, compassionate space where survivors can process their experiences at their own pace, reclaim their voice, and move toward healing with dignity, empowerment, and hope.

Sexual Abuse
Amy L Gould
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC-S, NCC, CCMHC
If you're an adult with a history of sexual abuse, you may notice its effects in ways that reach far beyond the abuse itself — in how you came to see yourself, the choices you make, the way you connect with others, or a sense of being stuck that's hard to put into words. Experiences like these, especially in childhood, can shape development in lasting ways, touching how you relate to yourself and to others long afterward.
This is deep and delicate work, and it deserves a counselor who moves gently and follows where you lead. In individual therapy, you decide what feels right to explore, and when. Together, we work toward understanding and healing, so that more of your life can be shaped by who you are and what you want — and less by what happened to you.

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.
