Sexual Abuse
Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
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
Sushma Cheturvedula
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Sexual abuse encompasses any non-consensual sexual activity or behavior imposed upon an individual. I would aid those grappling with sexual abuse by furnishing a secure and empathetic environment for them to process their ordeals. Collaboratively, we would delve into the emotional repercussions of the abuse, address symptoms of trauma or PTSD, and devise coping mechanisms to manage triggers and distressing memories. Moreover, I would support them in reestablishing a sense of safety and trust while navigating any relational or intimacy challenges stemming from the abuse. Our objective is to empower them to overcome the trauma, reclaim their identity, and progress towards recovery and healing.

Dr. Kimberly E. Johnson
Psychologist, PsyD, HSPP, APIT
A significant portion of my client base have experienced childhood and adult sexual abuse. Not infrequently the abuse may be by a family member or someone you know. Surviving the abuse is an important achievement. Being able to confront, process and successfully move forward in life is an important goal that takes sensitivity, trust and an experienced therapist. I strive to provide this to my clients on their path to healing.
