Pamela Angel
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
I specialize in sexual abuse because I am passionate about guiding survivors from a place of shame and silence toward healing, empowerment, and reclaiming their agency.
I believe that trauma-informed care is essential in addressing the profound emotional, psychological, and physical impacts of sexual violence. By utilizing specialized, evidence-based approaches (such as EMDR or TF-CBT), I provide a safe, non-judgmental, and validating space for clients to process their trauma at their own pace, helping them to rebuild self-esteem and foster healthy connections. My goal is to support you in navigating the journey from victim to survivor, helping you integrate your experiences and build a fulfilling life defined on your own terms.

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.

Inner World Counseling Services PLLC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
Healing from sexual abuse is a deeply personal, sensitive process that requires a space of absolute safety, pacing, and respect. Sexual trauma can leave a lingering aftermath of hypervigilance, shame, boundary confusion, and a profound disconnection from your own body or intuition. I specialize in helping adult survivors safely process these painful experiences without requiring you to flood your system or relive the trauma all at once. Utilizing evidence-based, root-cause modalities like EMDR and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), we work at your pace to gently untangle the survival habits, quiet the anxiety, and help you reclaim a sense of safety, ownership, and peace within your own life.
