Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, CN, EMDR certified, Clinical Supervisor
Welcome, We're so glad you’re here! Bonfire Healing provides outpatient telehealth therapy with focus on complex mental health issues and developmental trauma along with co-occurring eating issues, addictions, chronic health conditions, nuerodiversity, and maladaptive behaviors. Our mission is to promote health equity through increasing access to evidence-based trauma treatment while utilizing insurance benefits so that this care is both high quality and affordable to more people. We are trauma specialists and honor that while similar to other forms of trauma, sexual abuse has particular ways it impacts us particularly in feeling safe in our bodies and in relationships. We take a consent based relational approach and we are in this together. We combine evidenced based modalities to heal the impacts on your nervous system and bring back regulation that decreases the impacts of past, current, or recent sexual abuse.

Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
Because I have a speciality in trauma processing therapies, folks with past abuse can often find real relief in working through the implications of trauma-not just the memories of these experiences but how the body does indeed "keep the score". Trauma work needs to include both strong relational rapport, education about how trauma impacts on all levels of functioning and processing therapies such as EMDR or Deep Brain Reorienting to assist with deep healing.

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.
