The Empowering Space PLLC
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Healing from Sexual Abuse with Compassion & Support
Surviving sexual abuse can leave deep emotional wounds, affecting your self-worth, relationships, and sense of safety. At The Empowering Space, we provide a safe, confidential, and trauma-informed environment where survivors can process their experiences, regain a sense of control, and begin the healing journey at their own pace.
Using trauma-focused therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement De-sensitization and Re-Processing Therapy (EMDR) and mindfulness-based approaches, we help survivors navigate feelings of shame, guilt, anxiety, depression, and PTSD, while developing healthy coping strategies and reclaiming personal empowerment. Your healing is valid, and you deserve to feel safe, supported, and heard.
You are not defined by what happened to you. Healing is possible, and we’re here to walk this journey with you.

Avery Wageman Passion Flower Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Experiencing sexual abuse can have profound and lasting emotional, psychological, and relational impacts. It may affect how you feel in your body, your sense of safety, trust in others, and your ability to feel grounded or connected in daily life. These experiences are often complex and deeply personal, and healing can take time.
Avery provides a safe, compassionate, and trauma-informed space where you can share your experiences at your own pace, without pressure or judgment. The focus is on helping you feel supported as you process what happened, rebuild a sense of safety and control, and reconnect with yourself in a way that feels empowering and respectful. Together, you’ll work toward healing, resilience, and restoring a sense of stability and self-trust.
