Often we look for a therapist when we are in our darkest times or at our lowest point. I want to help you to find some calm in the chaos and work through the concerns. Please call or email to set up a free phone consultation! As a therapist, I work to use empathy, a sense of humor, and connection in all sessions. I want us to feel like a team working toward a common set of goals. I am trained in trauma work and get great joy from helping others feel more connected and engaged. It is important for me to give my clients a safe place to talk and share. We can work on getting a life you may have never thought to be possible to achieve.
Families of those who have been convicted of sexual abuses are often left confused, hurt, angry, and alone. To grieve a loved one who has become a pariah of humanity is an isolating time. Understand the what and why of sexual abuse is a process. Connecting with others who are in the same place of confusion with a guided approach towards healing is the purpose of this group.

Group meets in Lone Tree, CO 80124
Sometimes you feel like no one gets it; no one knows what it feels like to always feel on edge and constantly aware of your surroundings, with your mind always racing. But you know it all too well. You often wonder if it will ever get better, if the pain will ever go away, or if you'll be plagued with anxiety and self-doubt forever. What does better even look like? You have such a hard time letting yourself trust other people because you've been hurt so many times, but that's left you feeling alone and scared.

Sexual Abuse Support Groups
How do therapists treat sexual abuse?
A good therapist will be nonjudgmental and possibly demonstrate active listening, repeating back what the client says to show that they have understood. These skills allow people to feel comfortable discussing their traumatic experiences openly. Some important treatment goals are to restore a sense of safety and to rebuild confidence. In addition to working one-on-one with the patient, a therapist might bring in supportive family members to assist the client.
Do you have to talk extensively about sexual abuse in therapy?
Survivors frequently find it difficult to describe what happened to them out loud. They can even still be in a state of denial if the sexual abuse occurred recently. It is important for survivors to acknowledge that what happened isn’t their fault and to challenge and reappraise any unhealthy feelings or thoughts as they arise. Art therapy and play therapy are useful non-verbal means of communication for some survivors.
How long does treatment for sexual abuse take?
Recovery from sexual abuse can be a long and difficult process. Some survivors are able to move on naturally on their own, given time, while others require the guidance of a trained therapist. Therapy needs vary and can range from a few sessions to months or even years. Healing from sexual abuse takes time, and everyone’s journey will look a little different.
Can trauma symptoms caused by sexual abuse come back after treatment?
As occurs in many cases of trauma, survivors of sexual abuse may experience PTSD-like symptoms long after the abuse has ceased or after an initial round of treatment has occurred. In such a case, there is evidence that prolonged exposure therapy is a useful treatment for survivors, and may be more efficacious than supportive counseling alone. While triggers may continue to cause distress, the idea is that, with time and repeated exposure, their power will fade, allowing survivors to move on with their lives.
