Sexual Abuse
Dayna Nelson, PsyD, LP
Psychologist, PsyD, Licensed Psychologist
Many people will experience some form of childhood sexual abuse, sexual harassment, sexual assault, or exploitation. Sexual abuse victims often experience lasting trauma, which can cause a person to live with deep emotional pain, fear, confusion, or posttraumatic stress far after the event has passed. Dr. Nelson is trained in trauma informed care and EMDR to help clients heal and process past sexual abuse and regain their emotional freedom.
In these circumstances, the support, guidance, and assistance of a therapist is fundamental to healing from trauma.

Julien Moe
Hypnotherapist, Diploma in Clinical and Applied Hypnosis, Diploma in Life Coaching
Sexual abuse is considered treatable using hypnotherapy, which is often utilized to help survivors process trauma, regain self-worth, and reduce PTSD symptoms like flashbacks. It works by addressing subconscious beliefs and emotions in a safe, controlled manner. Experts like Dr. Nancy Irwin suggest it can transform anger and shame into empowerment.
If you have suffered from sexual abuse, I am right here to help you recover and heal. I will help you transform yourself into a new you. Of course, I use Dicit hypnotherapy. Patients with this disorder are getting resilient in no time and living a happy life now. So should you.

Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
When the foundation of trust shaken (if not feeling broken) through experiences of trauma, the approach to restoring one's life must always be one of sensitivity, patience, and compassion. Without this, there will always be a risk that it will never feel safe enough to heal.

James C. Carpenter, PhD, ABPP
Psychologist, PhD (Clinical Psychology, Ohio State U), Board Certified in Clinical Psychology (ABPP), PSYPACT
I gradually and not too happily became an expert in treating sexual abuse -- especially early abuse in childhood -- through working intensely with so many people who have presented with those issues. I understand the suggestibility of memory, and I never suggest or over-lead clients to these possible traumas. But they often enough present themselves indisputably into therapy work as it becomes deeper and safer. I have had and given a lot of training in this area and have a big toolbox of approaches at my disposal in working on this very delicate and important material.
