How do you work with clients with sexual abuse issues?
I work with clients who have experienced sexual abuse with care, patience, and deep respect for their pace. The focus is never on pushing you to share more than you are ready to share, but on helping you feel safer in your body, your relationships, and your present-moment experience.
Together, we may explore how past experiences have shaped your sense of safety, trust, boundaries, pleasure, intimacy, and self-worth. My approach is trauma-informed and mindful, helping you notice what is happening in the here and now while gently reconnecting with your own values, needs, and choices. The goal is to support healing in a way that feels grounded, empowering, and led by you.
I help clients explore what it means to live in deeper alignment with their sense of self, desires, values, and capacity for pleasure. My work is rooted in the belief that feeling fully alive includes reconnecting with the parts of ourselves that may have been shaped, limited, or silenced by expectations of who we “should” be.
Together, we explore sexuality, pleasure, identity, relationships, and self-expression as meaningful parts of the healing process. When we talk about sex, we often open the door to many other areas of life — intimacy, boundaries, confidence, vulnerability, joy, and personal freedom.
My approach is mindful, present-centered, and compassionate. I support clients in tuning into what is happening in the here and now, noticing what their experiences can teach them, and using that awareness to move toward a life that feels more authentic, connected, and fully their own.
