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.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Registered Social Worker, BBA, MDiv, MSW, CMAT, CSAT
Being assaulted, raped or being an incest-survivor is a hurt that you did not ask for or ever deserve. What is even worse is the reaction that others have, if you even tell them, because you can feel broken in response to the abusers power, manipulation and lingering silent control. I have worked with many incest survivors and trafficked humans and children to heal from experiences of the unimaginable. I know it can be scary but I am a professional that you can handle hearing and helping you through your experiences.
Reach out today to book an introductory call and get the care that you deserve.

Ps. I Love You Psychotherapy Inc.
Registered Psychotherapist, HBEd, MA (Hons.), Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Sexual abuse treatment for survivors and Sex offender treatment is different than other types of therapy for adults. Treatment for people who have sexually abused a child is a serious and encouraging process. Typically, it focuses on learning specialized strategies for stopping abusive behavior, being accountable, and taking responsibility for harm done. For persons who experience sexual abuse treatment is based on a compassionate, trauma, and emotionally focused lens. I often use DBT in these cases as well.

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.

Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Sexual abuse comes in various forms, but they all have one consequence, a disconnection to the self, and a mistrust and disconnection from others. After all, you’ve been invaded by someone else at one point in your life. But it doesn’t mean that your body and personal space is lost. It means that we need to come on full force to protect it and nurture it so it understands that now it’s safe, and to rid it of the energy/energies of those who once preoccupied it by unpacking the trauma.

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.
