In working with patients who have experienced sexual abuse, I offer specialized support tailored to their needs. This involves creating a safe and compassionate environment for them to explore their experiences and emotions. Through therapy, we address trauma symptoms, such as anxiety, depression, or PTSD, and develop coping strategies for managing triggers and flashbacks. I also provide education about trauma and its effects, as well as guidance on self-care and building resilience. The therapeutic process focuses on empowering survivors, promoting healing, and restoring a sense of agency and control over their lives.

Sexual Abuse
Dr. Evelyn Comber
Psychologist, L.C.P.C., Ph.D., M.A., M.P.C., M.H.S., B.G.S.
Dealing with sexual abuse, especially childhood sexual abuse, it is vital for you to know you are in control of the therapy. I bring my education, training, knowledge and expertise to the table; however, you have the control over the issue. I will gently encourage you, bring forth questions, but you say when, where and how we will delve into memories. You are not alone, I will be present, accepting, and boundaries will be well established and respected.

Sexual Abuse
Haley Carroll
Psychologist, MS, PhD
Healing from the trauma of sexual abuse is a deeply personal and courageous journey. My approach integrates behavioral and cognitive-behavioral (CBT) therapies to provide a safe and structured environment for your recovery. Utilizing evidence-based techniques such as Prolonged Exposure and Cognitive Processing Therapy, we will work together to address the distressing memories and thoughts associated with the trauma. These methods aim to reduce symptoms of PTSD, help you process and reframe traumatic experiences, and develop healthy coping mechanisms. My focus is on empowering you to reclaim your sense of safety, self-worth, and control over your life.
