Davene, Fecteau
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPCC
Do you feel lost and overwhelmed in the season of life you are in? Perhaps you, like so many of us, have been living through periods of prolonged stress. You may have experienced a significant traumatic event, or a million little things may have piled up. Either way, the methods you have been using to cope just may not be serving you well anymore. Therapy, and the work of healing, is learning how not to abandon yourself. With compassion, curiosity, and acceptance, I collaborate with you on working towards your goals so you can rediscover the wholeness of who you are. In order to heal, your brain and body need to feel safe and secure. You are the expert on your own internal experience, and my role is to assist you in learning how to utilize inner resources to help your mind and nervous system recover gently. I encourage you to not just treat your symptoms, but to go deeper into examining and healing what is causing the symptoms. This creates lasting change and the resources you learn to access in therapy can be utilized throughout your life moving forward.
I offer free phone consultations. Reach out today to learn more so you can decide how to proceed. I look forward to connecting with you.

Erika Shershun
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I specialize in helping trauma survivors, especially survivors of childhood and/or adult sexual trauma, reclaim the life they were meant to live. If you're struggling with symptoms related to trauma, such as being easily triggered, anxiety or depression, dissociation (feeling spaced out, numb, unable to ground, or connect to your body's sensations) trouble sleeping, nightmares, or flashbacks and more, you're in the right place (for an extensive list of trauma symptoms check out my post https://www.healingsexualtrauma.com/post/what-are-trauma-symptoms). My goal is to help you get the results you're looking for while offering lots of needed compassion and understanding. I'm the author of the Healing Sexual Trauma Workbook, the upcoming Healing Sexual Trauma Guided Journal (2024), and teacher of the PESI Sexual Trauma Clinical Training. I'm dedicated to supporting my clients as they navigate their healing journey.

Working from an integrative approach, combining the best of several models of therapy, I create a individualized experience where you can be safe, seen, and free of judgmental as you move toward healing.

We specialize in trauma recovery and relationship revitalization, but our journey with you doesn't stop at symptom reduction. We see every challenge as a springboard for a deeper, more meaningful life.
