I have had the privilege of working and training in a sexual assault center for many years and this has increased my expertise when working with individuals struggling with this trauma. It takes courage to take the first steps in order to "come out the other side" with a feeling of self confidence, mastery, and healing.

Leo Massey
Therapist, LMSW
For individuals who have experienced sexual abuse, validation and creating a safe environment are essential. I prioritize building a strong, trusting therapeutic relationship. Together, we determine the most effective approach, which may include Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Prolonged Exposure (PE) therapy, or elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). I also emphasize developing coping strategies and self-care techniques. I look forward to working with you to achieve your therapeutic goals and reclaim your sense of safety and empowerment!

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.
