Emma Heutschi
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Ed. Counselling Psychology, Registered Psychotherapist
Even after the trauma is over, it is common to still feel on edge, to question our part in the incident, and to feel as if we are reliving it over and over again. My training in trauma-informed therapy can help you to feel safe again, process the traumatic memories, and make meaning of the trauma in your life.

Sarah Houazene
Psychologist, Ph.D.
By exploring the trauma in a safe environment, we get to process it differently. It is important to understand all the ways the event had an impact on someone to help them work towards a more positive self-view and develop healthier relationships.

EMDR and Trauma Therapy Centre
Registered Social Worker, Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Sexual abuse reveals a devastating breach of trust that can profoundly impact an individual's sense of self and relationships. Sexual abuse can cause profound emotional wounds that last a lifetime since it is based on the intricate dynamics of power and vulnerability. It can also destroy the foundation of stable attachment ties. Therapy becomes a sanctuary for healing, offering a safe space to navigate the complexities of trauma, process the echoes of past violations, and reclaim agency over one's body and identity. By fostering compassionate connections and addressing the root causes of distress, survivors can embark on a journey of empowerment, resilience, and reclaiming a sense of safety and wholeness in their lives.

Whitney Reinhart
Registered Psychotherapist, MA., RP.
The effects of trauma and sexual abuse can leave us feeling vulnerable and unsafe long after the event itself. So often people can be left feeling hopeless, disconnected, and ashamed. Healing these wounds are essential to developing a strong sense of self, positive self view, and safety within relationships. I work from a trauma-informed perspective and pull from approaches that will allow us to build an understanding of the protective strategies formed to survive the emotional and mental impact of the abuse, and cultivate self-acceptance and trust with others.

Synergetic Healing Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Sexual abuse is a deeply traumatic experience that can have profound and lasting effects on an individual's mental, emotional, and physical well-being. At our practice, we provide a safe and compassionate space for survivors of sexual abuse to heal, grow, and reclaim their lives.
We understand the complexity and sensitivity surrounding sexual abuse, and we approach it with utmost care, respect, and empathy. Our therapists have specialized training and experience in working with survivors of sexual abuse, and we are committed to providing trauma-informed care.
In our sessions, we prioritize your safety and comfort, allowing you to share your experiences at your own pace and in a way that feels most comfortable to you. We believe in the power of listening, validation, and understanding to support your healing journey.
Our therapists utilize evidence-based approaches to address the consequences of sexual abuse, such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, trust issues, and difficulties with intimacy. We work collaboratively to develop a personalized treatment plan that respects your unique needs and goals.
Throughout the therapeutic process, we provide tools and techniques to help you process the trauma, manage distressing symptoms, and rebuild a sense of safety and empowerment. Our therapists may incorporate modalities such as trauma-focused cognitive-behavioral therapy (TF-CBT), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and somatic approaches to support your healing journey.
We recognize that healing from sexual abuse is a courageous and transformative process, and we are here to support you every step of the way. Our aim is to provide a nurturing environment where you can explore your emotions, develop coping strategies, and cultivate resilience.
You are not defined by the abuse you have experienced. Together, we can work towards reclaiming your sense of self, rebuilding trust in yourself and others, and fostering a brighter future. You are not alone in this journey, and we are here to stand by you as you heal and reclaim your life.

Clare Karasik
Registered Social Worker, MSW, BSW, RSW
I use a trauma-informed approach while supporting survivors to live in the present moment, reduce overwhelm from thoughts of the past, and feel safe. If you have experienced trauma you may be living with normal but unwanted effects of trauma, which may include anxiety, depression, fear, shame, anger, sleep issues, dissociation, and issues in relationships. I work with people to make new meaning from painful past experiences, regulate unwanted physiological experiences, and establish a sense of safety in their body and mind. I support people to develop a sense of awareness and acceptance of how their body and mind is responding to traumatic events by providing evidence-based information about what trauma is and how we can attend to it. I have experience working with survivors of childhood abuse as well as survivors of violence/abuse that occurred in adulthood.
