Sexual Abuse Therapists in Vermont

Greetings! My approach is client- centered; I work to build a positive, trusting relationship that focuses on your concerns and goals. I believe that our positive and negative thoughts often control or motivate our behaviors and feelings. if we can learn to question and change our negative thoughts, we can then start to shift our feelings and behaviors towards more positive outcomes.

Openings available (January 2024). Please contact via email first! (Easier for me to respond and get things started). I work well with clients seeking presence, compassion, and the space for vulnerability across a broad range of presenting concerns. My personal style supports witnessing and unburdening as much as "diagnosis" and "treatment". I offer validation and acceptance within a co-created relationship. Warmth and humor are necessary touchstones while we explore the arc of life.

I use a combination of therapeutic interventions to help with the diverse challenges that adolescents and adults experience. My approach is warm, relational, and client-centered. I draw upon research and evidence based approaches, while also looking deeper at a narrative that may be causing distress. We will create goals for mental health treatment that best support your individual needs and the conflicts you or your teenager are facing. Together we learn what helps you feel better.

I specialize in Anxiety and Depression Disorders, trauma, PTSD, Sexual abuse issues, ADD/ADHD, RAD (attachment disorders), oppositional defiance, parenting needs, personality disorders and bi-polar disorder. I have additional trainings in these areas and use evidenced-based techniques to help you overcome/manage these issues and live a life that you desire. I work with children, teens, adults, couples, families and the elderly. I am an LCSW with over 25 years of experience.

Feeling down, anxious, or stuck? I specialize in treating anxiety and depression using compassionate, evidence-based treatments (IFS and EMDR). We will work together to decrease symptoms of anxiety or depression, move forward from stuck feelings or traumatic memories, improve relationships, and increase self-compassion. Ultimately we will rediscover your core self — who you really are when anxiety and depression take a backseat.

I commend you for contemplating this important step toward attending to your own wellbeing. I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in the state of Illinois with 10 years of experience. I would describe my approach as warm and compassionate, but I will also challenge you when needed. My ultimate goal is to help you gain the tools and insight to meet your goals. I meet my clients where they are and work collaboratively with them to develop a plan for getting them where they want to be. If you are suffering psychologically, emotionally, or relationally, therapy can be an excellent way to move toward greater wellness.

I see the human person as made up of body, mind, and spirit, and each dimension affects the other, especially during times of crisis, stress, transition, and disharmony. Currently I am seeing clients who have been working at therapy for a while and have made significant progress in feeling focused and grounded in their life, but also feel there is something still missing, and are able to name spirituality as the area that needs attention.

My specialty is working with adolescents and adults to improve communication and facilitate healing from trauma and/or issues that are impacting life in a negative way. I have extensive experience working to address the effects of sexual and physical abuse history, PTSD, OCD, as well as anxiety and depression. I am passionate about working with women who are dealing with transitions, marital, relationship and other challenges. I focus on building a trusting relationship, identifying solutions and strengths in order to facilitate transformation. I am trained in IFS, EMDR, and Play Therapy, among other approaches.

Brief Waitlist - new clients. What is most important to you in this one precious life? What are ways your thoughts, speech and actions help align or make discordant your life goals? What are ways you find calm and safety? What are the ways your body communicates? These are some questions we explore together as we navigate the landscape of what it is to be alive, right here, right now. In addition to traditional talk therapy, I offer Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy and Psychedelic Integration Therapy. I am a certified Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy Provider.

I was the consulting therapist to the Northeastern Family Institute's Dialectical Behavior Therapy residential program for just under 8 years, the past year venturing out to expand my practice. I provide services to adults, specializing in treatment for individuals and families wrestling with the aftermath of trauma. I also serve first responders as an EAP First therapist, and I am a team member that conducts Critical Incident Stress Debriefing sessions to first responders. I believe in the potential for personal change. You are in a position of influence in your life and those who you care about and love.

Hello, my name is Felipe Stetson, LICSW. I have been practicing since 2002 and have a mature practice in which I see individual adults, couples, and kids and their families. I generally limit my practice with kids to 10 and above.

I am a Licensed Psychologist Master with over thirty years experience in working with adult survivors of childhood abuse and neglect. Depression, anxiety, or just a sense of life feeling less than what it could be, may be signs of childhood abuse or neglect. I help people navigate the sometimes choppy waters from their past in order to be fully living in the present. I am trained by Pia Melody in Post Induction Therapy for addressing the effects of codependence: low self esteem, impaired boundaries, knowing who you are , and difficulties with self care. Trauma creates addictions creates relational problems.

A person's strength and uniqueness are their best assets and are the foundation for their success. Each person is individual with their response to potentially traumatic event(s) and need an equally individual way of processing and overcoming the barriers that come from experiencing trauma. Each person must be given the attention, respect, and time to work through any traumatic event, which is much more successful when you have someone there to process this trauma with you. What you can expect from sitting in a therapy room with me is mutual respect, understanding that trauma is diverse, and patience since healing work takes time.

Are you tired of feeling disconnected and longing for deeper, more meaningful connections in your relationships? Maybe you're grappling with the aftermath of trauma, navigating life's unexpected twists and turns, or simply seeking a safe space to explore your emotions and experiences. My goal is to empower you to cultivate deeper connections, resilience, and well-being as you journey towards the life you want to live.

Accepting new clients. Hi, there! I am interested in building our relationship's foundation on trust. I believe client and therapist relationship is the only way to produce positive outcomes. When this is established, a beautiful environment is formed to which you, the client, may take steps to heal. We will work together as a team to change negative thinking patterns to positive thinking patterns, fill your tool belt with healthy coping mechanisms and ultimately smash your goals of therapy. This is a non judgmental zone, there are no power struggles and you will feel welcomed.

I specialize in helping people overcome complex and “difficult-to-treat” problems. Clients often come to therapy feeling "stuck" and wanting more freedom in their choices. I work with clients to help identify and bring light to the strategies that we often use to avoid our feelings and keep us locked in patterns we want to shift.

Do you feel stuck? Are you having trouble regaining balance and moving forward? Sometimes feelings of worry and sadness can interfere with our daily lives. Depression can make going to work or school seem like an enormous task. You may have low energy, lack of motivation, overwhelming sadness or feelings of uncontrollable worry. There may be a current situation that triggers memories from a past event. It could be a car accident, bullying, abuse, or losing someone that you cared about. All of these situations can be traumatic and my experience with a research based trauma resolution model can help!

I provide mobile (where you are), office-based (in Vermont or Iowa), virtual, and nature-based trauma therapy intensives. My work is focused on helping your nervous system and inner child repair itself after trauma. I have witnessed many of clients alleviate long-standing struggles/challenges related to Complex PTSD, unresolved childhood trauma, and related addiction issues by working in this way. I offer integrative trauma therapy focusing on EMDR in CA, NY, VT, IA, NH, MA, ME & worldwide in intensive/extended session formats. I am certified with Skylight Psychedelics for enhancing your work with Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy.

If you're reading this you're probably unhappy and hoping to make a change, or perhaps you want to experience yourself at a deeper level. I work with people experiencing a range of problems, from mild dissatisfaction to overwhelming anxiety and despair. In my experience the critical factor in choosing a therapist is fit. The best way to see if a therapist is right for you is to have an initial meeting and see how you feel.
