The effects of sexual abuse in your life, whether you are a victim or very close to one, can cause you to struggle in a number of areas in your life. But it doesnt have to define you so in therapy we work to have you resolve those issues and find your true self.

Sexual Abuse
Alena Porter
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
Sexual abuse is not always violent, in fact, it is rarely violent. I have presented at conferences on non-consensual sexual experiences and how those experiences affect clients. I will never ever tell you that anything you went through was your fault, wasn't "really rape," or is your marital duty. In addition to non-consensual sexual experiences I specialize in treating military sexual trauma. Almost all cases of sexual abuse are compounded by institutional betrayal either by medical professionals, police officers, human resources or commanding officers, or lawyers. Institutional betrayal can make it difficult for clients to trust anyone. I hope that if you are a person who has gone through any of these experiences that you will reach out to myself or other sex positive therapists.
6 Years Experience
Sexual Abuse
Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Sexual abuse often creates very painful symptoms and is something for which I use a therapy called Prolonged Exposure (PE). In this therapy, we will revisit traumatic situations, process painful emotions, and change unhelpful beliefs about yourself and the world around you as a result of your trauma. People are often amazed at how quickly this treatment can work and by the very meaningful change that can result. For these reasons, this is one of my favorite treatments to provide.
