Dr. Kelly Smith
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Have you or your child gone through an experience of abuse and need support to get to the other side? Is anger, sleeplessness, worries, dropping job or school grades, poor relationships (or worries that this will be a problem one day), or blaming yourself an ongoing part of your experience? Walking down the street reacting to people who smell like, look like, or sound like them. This is normal unless you have processed what happened. Living like this doesn't have to be the new normal. It is possible to go on to have healthy relationships, sleep through the night, be confident out in the world, and do well in life.

Dr. Daniele Levy, Bay Area Cognitive Therapy
Psychologist, PhD, MBA
When working with clients who have experienced sexual abuse, I use Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) to help them process and reframe the trauma. CPT helps individuals identify and challenge unhelpful beliefs related to safety, trust, power, control, intimacy, and self-esteem that often arise after abuse. We work together to explore and challenge these thoughts, facilitating healing and fostering a healthier, more empowered sense of self, while also addressing emotional and cognitive responses tied to the trauma. This approach is designed to promote lasting recovery and improved mental well-being.

Raquel Molina
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I have over 10 years experience working with sexual abuse survivors. I am trained in different treatment modalities specific to working with a person who has a history of sexual abuse. Working with sexual abuse survivors is a delicate process and it is important to find a therapist who has an understanding of working with individuals to avoid retraumatization.

Sarah Farnsworth
Pre-Licensed Professional, MFA, RPS
You bear the scar of an intensely personal nature. Sexual trauma is a serious and underserved issue within our communities, in part due to external stigma but also due to the internal havoc it causes, breaking down trust and defying explanation. It is, for many reasons, difficult to talk about. Psychoanalysis can help. I offer a space where we can safely explore these experiences and their aftermath, and begin to find or redefine your relationship with yourself.

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.
