Amanda Etienne
Psychologist, Psy.D
Sexual abuse and relational trauma are a core part of my clinical focus, and I know how layered this work can be - especially for women who've spent years intellectualizing or minimizing what happened to them. I help you slow down enough to actually feel what's there, using approaches like EMDR, at a pace that never asks more of you than you're ready to give.

Pre-Licensed Professional, Licensed Professional Counselor Associate
My heart in working with survivors of sexual abuse is to help them reclaim their voice, choice, and empowerment as they pursue healing. Together we will approach your story from a trauma informed mindset that cares for the mind/body/spirit connection and seek to restore your connection to your body, healing from your abuse, and any other goals you may have.

Allie Scott Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
I have extensive experience and training in helping clients heal from sexual trauma. Whether the abuse occurred recently or in the distant past, I can guide you through processes which ultimately can release you from the emotional and physiological symptoms and negative cognitions which often result from such abuse. I have also worked successfully with survivors of human trafficking to become overcomers and to create the life of safety, peace, joy and connection that they desire.

Samia Geraghty
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
Experiencing sexual abuse is a profound violation that can shatter your sense of safety, trust, and control, often leaving behind the heavy burden of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. Trauma from sexual abuse does not just exist in your memories; it impacts your entire nervous system. You may find yourself trapped in a painful cycle of vivid flashbacks, severe anxiety, emotional numbness, or an intense, constant vigilance as if danger is always nearby. It is also common to battle overwhelming feelings of guilt, shame, or confusion, even though the abuse was entirely out of your control. Living in this state of survival is exhausting, but it is important to know that you do not have to remain trapped in the past. Therapy offers a gentle and safe space where you can begin to process your experiences at your own pace. Utilizing evidence-based, trauma-informed approaches, we will work together to help your mind and body understand that the danger has passed. Our goal is to help you release the heavy weight of shame, quiet your nervous system, and reclaim your body, your choices, and your life.

Melissa Kummer Dague
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Abuse of any kind should never happen, but when it does, therapy can be a valuable tool in healing. I began my career at a domestic violence and sexual assault shelter, and am trained in evidence based trauma modalities like Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to best address the needs of those impacted by violence.
