Child abuse victims don’t only need justice—they need healing & hope. And our full-time, licensed, and board-certified mental health professionals and master’s level student interns are here to help.
Why Is Therapy Necessary?
Abuse can rewire a child’s brain, victimizing them all over again.
Trauma can create vulnerabilities that contribute to:
Persistent fear
Anxiety & depression
Impulse control challenges
Delayed developmental growth
Impaired ability to regulate stress
Attatchment difficulties
Difficulty navigating social interactions
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
Weakened response to positive feedback
