Sexual Abuse Therapists in 37206

As an AASECT Certified Sexuality Counselor working with individuals and couples, I combine evidence-based best practices with experience as a Tantric Sexuality Educator and practitioner, offering a supportive environment for thorough and constructive exploration of sexual matters. Questions and concerns may be talked about openly without fear of embarrassment or criticism. As a Mind-Body Psychotherapist, I help clients talk through issues and learn to utilize emotions as embodied resources for healing and growth, encouraging awareness of connection between body, mind, and spirit. My background as a pastoral psychotherapist and experience with body therapies such as yoga, breath-work, and meditation inform my work.

I specialize in working with the emotional internalizers of the world. Do you self-isolate? Not return text messages or calls when life gets hard? Stuffing down your feelings and wants? Avoiding conflict? Self-sabotaging? Maybe intimacy is hard for you, especially if you're a survivor of sexual trauma. You want desperately to change but aren’t sure how. Trauma (especially from dysfunctional childhoods) convinces us that we’re an anomaly, not worth loving. It feels like everyone has it “together” except you. I get it, I’ve been there. The truth is, you’re not alone. Let's help YOU get what YOU what from life, relationships, and work.

I believe that all of us can benefit from additional support in different seasons of our lives. It takes bravery to reach out and meet with someone, and I’m passionate about building a relationship with my clients where they are able to engage with their own resilience and innate ability to heal. Many of us develop patterns that help us move through and cope with what we have experienced, and often, we realize these strategies are no longer serving us, and are keeping us from experiencing the full life we desire. I walk alongside my clients in helping them become reconnected to their true selves, and reach their goals.

I truly believe that each client is the absolute expert on themselves and strive always to create space for clients to feel, be, and show up as their authentic selves. My approach is relational, casual, sex positive, and gender affirming. I take a systems approach to appreciating all the different factors that make up you and your unique experiences in the world. I specialize in complex trauma, and love to work with folks within the LGBTQIA2S+ community, folks struggling to navigate overwhelming emotions, folks struggling with boundary setting, and folks looking to explore and truly find love and compassion for themselves.

Life stressors and trauma can impact our lives in unexpected ways and reaching out for support takes courage. I value collaborating with individuals to curate space for their healing journey. As a therapist, I am committed to establishing an environment where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences without judgment. I practice from a trauma informed, relational, and anti-oppressive perspective and believe that each person's journey is unique and deserving of respect. My approach is rooted in an appreciation for the diverse backgrounds and identities that each person brings to the therapeutic relationship.

You’re tired of being haunted by past experiences. No matter what you do, you feel like you stay stuck in the same cycles as before. Maybe you experienced overt trauma, such as abuse or an accident. Or maybe you have a hard time identifying why you react the way you do. Often, you have thoughts like “I’m too sensitive” or “I’m not good enough.” Even when you want to enjoy the good things in life, you feel unable to be present. The good news is that you don't have to be alone in this. My job as your therapist is to develop a trusting relationship where you can show up authentically, in all of life’s messiness.

Sadie values the safety of the collective and challenging the pathology paradigm. I honor the therapeutic relationship by showing up as a human first and a therapist second. I acknowledge the numerous genocides taking place across the world and practice within an anti-carceral and anti-capitalist approach. I believe that safety and trust are vital to the healing process and that everyone deserves joy and pleasure. I live openly as a kinky, non-binary, neurodivergent, and polyamorous human. I celebrate your unique relationship structure and enjoy challenging cis-heteronormative expectations. I believe we are all capable of healing.

We often do not know what we want out of life. Our desire is inhibited by something we cannot name. Analysis goes beyond simply reducing symptoms, providing a unique space to listen to your unconscious - a space where you can let go of standards, and think out loud without being judged. You can bring your history, your dreams, anything that comes to mind. As you speak freely, you will begin to live more freely.

Whether you, your child/youth, or your family are dealing with specific issues related to school, work, and relationships, want to heal from trauma, want science-based tools to reboot your nervous system, or simply enhance your mental health, I'm here to help.

Greetings! I'm Karen Roberts, a licensed clinical social worker with over 25 years of experience in working with individuals, families, and groups in community. In therapy, my approach is to meet you where you are on your journey and collaborate towards achieving your goals. By envisioning what changes you desire in your life, you have already taken the first step. Perhaps you aim to be more vibrant, energetic, decisive, and purposeful. Imagine the possibilities if you could tap into these qualities. What would your life look like and how would you feel?

Healing the root cause of outdated relationship patterns and complex trauma can be an overwhelming, shit sandwich of a maze. With proven somatic techniques, accountability, and a little time, we can heal the root cause lurking in your tissues. I've worked in the mental health field for 18 years; in my private practice, I've been specializing specifically in relationships, codependency, and complex trauma for the past 11 years. Healing IS possible. I've seen it and lived it. I would love to chat with you about creating your new relationship blueprint!

I am passionate about working with those experiencing anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, life transitions, somatic symptoms and more. I am a believer of the mind, body and soul connection and understand that mental health symptoms can arise in all three domains. I work to recreate balance and equilibrium within the individual as a whole. I aim to create a safe, judgment-free environment that welcomes all parts of the client into the room.

I have over a decade of experience specifically treating trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, life-transitions, and communication/relationship support. I offer weekly psychotherapy to clients using a strengths-based, integrative, and psychodynamic approach to help increase self-insight, self-esteem, and seIf-compassion. I view each client as a unique and individual being, and we work together to figure out your best course of treatment and healing. My goal is to help you live your most fulfilled life, all while being your most authentic self- my goal is for you is to thrive.

Do you find yourself ruminating over the past and feeling embarrassed, anxious, or depressed for “not being over it"? Perhaps you learned to compartmentalize your emotions to cope. I work with my clients to hone their emotional awareness and create space to meet, understand, and process parts of their lives that have been put aside to survive.

I invite all parts of your story into the room. I most often hear that what is wanted from therapy is hope and relief. Relief from anxiety, hope for your relationship. I believe you can achieve self-esteem, hope, and healing. I've seen it happen many times. Trusting this process is the first step. You don't have to do this alone. I can stand with you and guide you towards a safe and secure self within life's ups and downs. You can learn how to regain a sense of self, heal from the past, come home to your body, and create a life you find worth in living.

My goal is to offer a therapeutic space of connection and to move at the client’s own pace to tap into the resiliency and capacity for growth that resides within them. Whether you are wanting to grow your skills in coping with life’s many challenges, to know yourself more fully, or to seek healing from trauma, I am glad to meet you here and would feel honored to collaborate with you on your therapy journey.
