Kristee Barker
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-S
I am a trauma specialist. Sexual abuse leaves deep and complicated wounds — not just in the body, but in identity, trust, boundaries, and the nervous system. I work with you to rebuild safety at a pace that feels respectful and empowering, helping you understand the parts of yourself that had to adapt in order to survive. Using EMDR, IFS, and other trauma‑focused approaches, we gently process the memories, shame, fear, and self‑blame that often linger long after the abuse ends. My goal is to help you feel grounded, whole, and in control of your story again.

Psychologist
Many of our therapists work with sexual abuse survivors. We feel that sexual abuse survivors need and deserve a safe and secure place to discuss their pain and survivor-hood. Dr. Sanness and Dr. Nelson specialize in trauma. Dr. Sanness also specialized in Complex Trauma (repeated trauma that has occurred over developmental time periods throughout the life-span).

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.

Surviving sexual abuse can impact your body, boundaries, relationships, and sexuality long after the event. I offer a trauma‑informed, paced approach that centers safety and choice as we process what happened, address triggers, and support you in reclaiming your body, voice, and sense of self.
