Sexual Abuse
ASR Counselling and Psychotherapy, Attachment and Trauma-informed
Registered Social Worker, HonBA, BSW, MSW, RSW, EMDR Certified
Sexual abuse not only violates the body but can also violate the mind. It impacts relationships and can distort what it means to feel safe. It is a thief of empowerment and self-agency. Our work will aim to take your body and your mind back. My 22 years of experience has allowed me to witness how healing wounded parts and processing stuck emotions and triggers, has allowed people to reclaim control and rediscover their inner strength.

Sexual Abuse
Ryan Bittinger
Pre-Licensed Professional, Registered Psychotherapist (Q), DPsychotherapy, LPCC, CAS
Experiencing sexual violence, especially at the hands of someone that you should have been able to trust, leaves deep scars. These can feel too painful or shameful to talk about, leaving you to feel alone with them. Many years of practice in this area of equipped me to work with you at a pace that feels manageable and allows you to examine the many ways you've been impacted. This work can be slow, but the changes clients experience often leave them feeling stronger and more capable than ever.

Sexual Abuse
Alessia Zita | Zita Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapy (Qualifying)
Do you often feel unsafe, ashamed, or disconnected from your body or emotions? Many people who have experienced sexual abuse grow up learning to hide their feelings, doubt their perceptions, or carry shame and fear that was never theirs to hold. You may find yourself replaying experiences, avoiding triggers, or struggling to feel fully present in relationships.
These reactions are not a sign of weakness—they are natural protective responses to trauma. What matters is how you process and work with them now. Together, we can create a safe space to explore your experiences, rebuild trust in yourself, and support you in feeling more grounded, empowered, and lighter over time. You survived for a reason. Let’s explore why, and what healing can look like now.

Sexual Abuse
Sierra Gaudreault
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Sexual violence can have a devastating impact on our relationship with our bodies, our identity, others and the world around us. It can be particularly isolating because we often blame ourselves, feel blamed by others or are made to feel inadequate when we cannot simply "get over it". I offer Cognitive Processing Therapy to help you rebuild your relationship with safety, trust, intimacy, control and self-esteem. I also teach you coping skills to manage emotions and dissociation.

Sexual Abuse
Patricia Berendsen & Associates Trauma Healing Centre of London Counselling, Psychotherapy, & Holistic Wellness
Marriage and Family Therapist, CCFT-S, RSW, RP, SEP
Whenever our boundaries are violated our sense of self can be diminished. Other side effects of sexual abuse are often shame, isolation and even guilt. Feeling responsible for the abuse is common among survivors. Counselling can support the courage to heal and to learn ways to put the pieces of your life together.

Sexual Abuse
Barbara Freedman
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor
As a counsellor on the Victim Services VQRP(Victim Quick Response Program)List I have successfully worked with hundreds of clients both children as well as adults who were victims of sexual abuse and/or trauma. For children who are victims use activities from “A Child Sexual Abuse Kit”. The Shame that accompanies this form of abuse encourages its survivors us to feel flawed and inadequate as they internalize the consistent message that their experience is too horrible for words…and, by implication, that consequently THEY are too horrible for words.Such paralyzing and isolating feelings associated with this form of abuse, particularly shame often further results in a need to punish oneself for perceived wrong doing. As many survivors feel that their treatment is “proof” that they are worthless, when rejected by others, they in turn punish further themselves. Self -sabotaging behavior may include poor and self -destructive choices, very often even on an unconscious level.

Sexual Abuse
Rebecca Goldstein, TuneinTherapy, ADHD | Trauma | Autism
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW, MTA, BMT, FAMI
Healing from sexual abuse is deeply personal, and it often impacts far more than the original experiences alone. It can affect safety, trust, identity, boundaries, relationships, self-worth, nervous system regulation, sexuality, and the way you move through the world.
My approach is trauma-informed, compassionate, and grounded in creating a space where you do not need to rush, minimize, or explain your pain before you are ready. I understand that healing is not one-size-fits-all, and that survival patterns, shame, dissociation, anger, grief, or confusion may all be part of the process.
Together, we work at a pace that feels safe and realistic for you — focusing on rebuilding self-trust, understanding trauma responses, strengthening boundaries, reducing shame, and helping you reconnect with yourself in ways that support healing, empowerment, and meaningful change.

Sexual Abuse
Lauren Kalvari
Registered Social Worker, PhD, MSW, RSW
Sexual abuse and sexual trauma can profoundly affect emotional well-being, relationships, self-worth, trust, identity, physical safety, and connection to one’s own body. In some relationships, sexual coercion or abuse may occur alongside emotional abuse, coercive control, intimate partner violence, or spiritually mediated forms of manipulation and shame. Survivors are often left carrying confusion, self-blame, fear, dissociation, or difficulty trusting themselves and others.
I provide trauma-informed virtual psychotherapy for adults recovering from sexual abuse, sexual trauma, coercive sexual experiences, and psychologically harmful relationships. Therapy focuses on restoring emotional safety, rebuilding self-trust, understanding trauma responses, and supporting healing at a pace that feels grounded and manageable. I am also attentive to the cultural, relational, and spiritual contexts in which sexual trauma occurs, including experiences shaped by religious teachings, family systems, silence, or loss of community.

Hamilton is undergoing rapid transformation from a steel city to an emerging arts, tech, and health-sciences hub, and therapists here frequently work with the tension between a proud working-class identity and the changes brought by gentrification and urban renewal. McMaster University and McMaster University Medical Centre — one of Canada's leading health research institutions — provide institutional mental health resources and an active clinical training ecosystem. The city's significant immigrant population from South Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America drives demand for culturally informed and multilingual therapists. Hamilton's affordability relative to Toronto has made it a destination for those priced out of the GTA, and therapists regularly address the adjustment challenges of relocation and community rebuilding.
