Sara Deese
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, MCAP, LMHC-QS
The impact of sexual abuse runs deep—affecting trust, safety, self-worth, and the ability to feel fully present in your own body. Whether the abuse happened recently or years ago, healing is possible. I offer a safe, compassionate space where you can begin to process what happened at your own pace—without judgment or pressure. Together, we’ll work to reduce shame, rebuild a sense of safety, and help you reconnect with your strength, voice, and sense of self. You are not alone, and your healing matters.

Danielle Farabaugh
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I offer trauma-informed therapy for survivors of sexual abuse, providing a safe, supportive space to begin healing. My approach focuses on restoring safety, trust, and connection after trauma. Together, we work gently to process painful experiences, reduce shame, and rebuild a sense of control and self-worth. Using evidence-based trauma therapy, I help clients manage triggers, strengthen boundaries, and move toward empowerment, emotional resilience, and a renewed sense of wholeness in their lives.

Dr. Kelsi Clayson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
The effects of sexual abuse can linger long after the experience itself, shaping the way you see yourself, your relationships, and the world around you. You may struggle with trust, feel disconnected from your body, or experience shame that doesn’t belong to you. Maybe certain memories surface when you least expect them, or you find yourself avoiding situations that feel too vulnerable or triggering. However it shows up, know that your response is valid—your mind and body have worked hard to protect you.
Healing from sexual abuse is not about "just moving on" but about reclaiming your sense of safety, autonomy, and self-worth. In our work together, we will move at your pace, creating a space where you feel supported, understood, and in control of your own healing process. You are not defined by what happened to you, and you do not have to carry this alone. With care and intention, we can work toward healing, self-compassion, and the ability to fully step into your life on your terms.
