Louise Perry
Therapist, IFS UKCP HCCP BAAT
Experiencing sexual trauma can leave deep, lasting wounds that impact your sense of safety, trust, and self-worth. It’s not uncommon to feel isolated, confused, or overwhelmed by the complexity of your emotions. As an Art and IFS (Internal Family Systems) Psychotherapist, I’m here to help you navigate this challenging terrain with compassion, patience, and sensitivity.
Our work together will respect the pace that feels safe for you. By incorporating creative expression, we can gently externalize and explore the overwhelming feelings that may be difficult to put into words. Through IFS, we’ll identify and understand the protective parts of you that have emerged in response to trauma, offering them reassurance and relief, while also tending to the hurt, vulnerable parts that need comfort, acknowledgment, and healing.
My goal is to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment where you can gradually release the burden of shame, reclaim your sense of agency, and move toward a more empowered, integrated, and self-compassionate life. You deserve to heal and find a path forward—and I’m committed to walking alongside you every step of the way.

Ricardo Peña
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Examples of scenarios that survivors might experience, which inspire them to seek help from others to heal, include:
Uncommon reactions to situations
Continued struggles with feelings and emotions
Sexual dysfunction
New experiences trigger past traumas
Survivors of sexual abuse have found that recognizing their trauma, speaking about it with others, and seeking justice are essential parts of healing. Those who engage with the healing process can move past their trauma and live healthy lives and eliminate some or all of the struggles they have experienced when coping with their trauma on their own.

Lisa Paer
Counselor/Therapist, LMFT, LPCC, EMDR Certified
I offer specialized therapy for survivors of sexual abuse, whether it happened in childhood or adulthood. Sexual abuse can have lasting effects on your mental health, self-esteem, relationships, and sexuality. It can cause you to feel shame, guilt, anger, fear, or numbness. You may also struggle with flashbacks, nightmares, anxiety, depression, or PTSD. I can help you heal from the trauma of sexual abuse and reclaim your life. My approach is based on a technique called EMDR, which stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. EMDR is a proven method that can help you process your traumatic memories and reduce their negative impact on your present and future. It can help you feel more empowered, resilient, and hopeful. I’m a compassionate and respectful therapist who will create a safe and supportive space for you to work through your trauma, rebuild your trust, and enhance your well-being.

Dr. Rebecca Scott, Psy.D
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist, Certified in Holistic Health
I can provide support to patients who are struggling with sexual abuse both past and current. I provide many different types of modalities and encourage patients to choose the path they feel most comfortable with. Recalling all the details can be further traumatizing and research suggests in many cases not necessary.
