Sexual Abuse
Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you have experienced sexual abuse, you may carry pain that feels difficult to put into words. You may experience shame, fear, anger, numbness, or confusion about your own reactions. Trauma can affect how you see yourself, how you trust others, and how your body responds in moments of closeness or stress. What happened to you was not your fault.
At Selah Counselling, we approach sexual abuse with deep compassion and clinical care. Your safety and pacing matter. We do not rush the process. We begin by building stabilization and nervous system regulation so your body feels safer before exploring traumatic memories. Over time, we gently process the impact of the abuse, address distorted beliefs that may have formed, and support you in reclaiming your voice and boundaries. Healing is possible. You deserve a space where you are believed, respected, and supported as you move toward strength and restoration.

Sexual Abuse
Angela Popovici
Psychologist, Registered Provisional Psychologist, B.Sc Psych, MACP
I provide a safe, non-judgmental, and compassionate space for individuals healing from sexual abuse and trauma. I understand the profound emotional, psychological, and relational impacts of sexual abuse and believes that recovery begins with feeling validated, supported, and empowered.
Using an integrative approach I help clients process traumatic experiences, rebuild self-esteem, and develop coping strategies for emotional regulation and safety. My approach emphasizes empowerment, trust, and self-compassion, helping survivors reclaim a sense of control and begin to heal at their own pace.
I provide a confidential and supportive environment where clients can work through trauma, restore personal strength, and move toward a more hopeful, empowered future—one compassionate step at a time.

Sexual Abuse
Romana Hrivnakova
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, RCC
Healing from sexual abuse requires a therapeutic space built on absolute safety, choice, and a deep understanding of the nervous system. Drawing on over 15 years of experience in high-intensity trauma and mental health settings, I provide a compassionate, paced environment to help you process the profound impact of this betrayal.
My approach uses a Parts Work lens to understand the survival strategies—such as dissociation, shame, or hyper-vigilance—that your system developed to protect you. We move at your pace, focusing on restoring your sense of autonomy and internal security. Together, we work to help your 'parts' unburden the weight of the past, moving toward a future of genuine healing and reclaimed self-worth.

Sexual Abuse
Donna Wigmore Counselling Services
Counsellor/Therapist, CCC, CT
I have recently taken an in-depth course on Counselling adult survivors of Sexual Violence. I learned a lot about how to approach dealing with this trauma. In this work, we must move forward gently and cautiously, giving trust between us to build. From the outset, as you are ready, it will be good and effective for you to know there is compassion for what you have experienced. Although the body may not be a safe place from which to work at first, because of this trauma, we will carefully and gradually establish a new way to expand your window of tolerance so that you can feel safe.

Transforming Emotions
Psychologist
Sadly, sexual abuse still too often hides in the shadows. Individuals of all genders and sexual orientations often feel compelled to hide their pain from places of shame, self-blame, or fear. Too often, survivors of sexual abuse have not been believed, or have been silenced for others' comfort or in the service of preserving the status quo. At Transforming Emotions, our trauma-informed therapists are ready to help support you through the painful work of healing and recovery at a pace that works for you. We start with a focus on personal safety and building trust with your therapist. Next steps include reducing feelings of shame and and fear, and proceeding to process any memories that haunt you while understanding that those truly responsible for sexual abuse are those who perpetrate it. We end with helping you integrate a new, calmer, more confident and grounded sense of self, helping you live more truly in the present rather than being tethered to the past. Reach out today to help us better understand your unique needs. We will share our recommendations for therapists who may be the best match for you, and we will provide access to a free 20 minute consultation with team members you may be interested in working with allowing you to tell us which team member feels like the right fit for you. Contact us today to take your next step towards healing.

Sexual Abuse
Roger Thiessen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CCC, MPS, M.Div
Approximately 30% of females in Canada, along with many males, have experienced sexual trauma. As a survivor myself, I know its impact. The long-term effects of sexual trauma include shame from victim blaming, relationship difficulties, and even physiological issues, such as obesity. I worked in a sexual assault centre for many years, and have counselled people in the sex industry. As hopeless as things can seem, I know that sexual assault victims can not only survive but thrive, experiencing a life of freedom, fullness and rich relationship.

Sexual Abuse
Julie Taylor Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, MTC, RCS
It's the emotional part of all abuse that makes abuse so painful. Sexual Abuse is an attack on the very essence of what makes us human. It is the ultimate violation. It is also a topic that is hard to talk about and difficult to process but something that cries out to be addressed. Call me...

Halifax is Atlantic Canada's largest city and a hub for universities, the military, and ocean-tech industries, creating a therapy community serving students, naval personnel, and knowledge workers navigating the pressures of high-achieving careers in a smaller city. Dalhousie University and Canadian Forces Base Halifax generate distinct demand for therapists who specialize in academic stress, military trauma, and the particular challenges of military family life. Nova Scotia Health provides public mental health services, with a private therapy community serving the South End, Bedford, and Dartmouth. Halifax's relatively small size means specialist therapist availability can be limited in some areas, and telehealth has become especially important for accessing care across Atlantic Canada.
