San Jose, California therapist: Russell Wilkie, marriage and family therapist
Sexual Abuse

Russell Wilkie

Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
Sexual abuse is very upsetting to our sense of self because it affects: self-esteem, body issues, boundaries, betrayal, future sex life, intimacy, and trust to name just a few. Recovery starts with gently and gracefully beginning to love yourself, as you are, and then working through the above issues and others. You can learn to have excellent boundaries and have sex without anxiety and fear.

Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist, Certified in Holistic Health
I can provide support to patients who are struggling with sexual abuse both past and current.

San Francisco, California therapist: Erika Shershun, marriage and family therapist
Sexual Abuse

Erika Shershun

Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I'm passionate about helping survivors of sexual abuse to heal. I don't want others to spend years and years as I did, trying to get the support they need. For this reason, my work focusses on eliminating your symptoms and getting you the results you want. Some therapist say we never heal, that is not my experience. I'm the author of the Healing Sexual Trauma Workbook (available in four languages), and the Healing Sexual Trauma Guided Journal will be released in fall 2024. My Sexual Trauma Clinical Training course for therapists is available through PESI, and the Healing Sexual Trauma Course for survivors will be available sometime in 2024 at HealingSexualTrauma.com

Los Angeles, California therapist: Lisa Paer, counselor/therapist
Sexual Abuse

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.

Lafayette, California therapist: Dr. Catherine Ferreira-Babor, Psy.D., psychologist
Sexual Abuse

Dr. Catherine Ferreira-Babor, Psy.D.

Psychologist, Psy.D.
The damage done from sexual abuse can be life long. We can't change the fact that it happened but we can change how it impacts you. You might have thought that it didn't really effect you but you find yourself struggling now, as an adult, and you cant figure out why. Working through your past trauma can help you build a life that you are at peace with and that isn't dictated by something someone did to you when you were too young to protect yourself.

Walnut Creek, California therapist: Alethea Gard'ner, LCSW, licensed clinical social worker
Sexual Abuse

Alethea Gard'ner, LCSW

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
Unfortunately, sexual abuse is way too common in our world. It often leads to traumatic responses not limited to difficulty in relationships, negative self image, shame, blame, and depression. Working through the abuse can be very empowering and change the way you view yourself. I have been privileged to work with many women and men as they process these memories and regain themselves.
