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.

New Moon Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MACP, MSW, RSW, RP, RP(Q)
One of the greatest challenges in healing from sexual abuse is opening up about it to others. Many survivors feel ashamed of what happened to them and feel that there is something they could have done to stop it. Others start to question if it even happened or if it was just some big misunderstanding. We know that's not how this works. What happened was done to you, the way you responded was the only option. You did exactly what you needed to do.
Sexual trauma can make us feel like we're broken - like there's something wrong with us or like we're permanently damaged. These thoughts are symptoms, not facts. We can help you see things differently - this part of your story does not define you.
Imagine a life in which you don't have to keep trying to please others, to struggle silently while trying to keep it all together on the outside, to feel like you can't trust or that you're out of control and to put others' needs consistently above your own.
Our goal is to help you regain power and control in your life and to release some of the heaviness that you've been carrying. We want you to begin seeing the world as a space in which trust and safety are not foreign concepts. A world in which you don't have to hide from your past or distract yourself to get through the day.
Helping people overcome their traumas is the work that makes us get out of bed in the mornings. We specialize in trauma related to sexual abuse including childhood sexual abuse, incest, rape, sexual assault, human trafficking, and sexual harassment both within and outside the workplace.
Please reach out - even if you don't quite believe things can get better - so that we can talk about how we might be able to help.
We offer 1:1, couples, family and group therapy focused specifically on healing from sexual abuse and will connect you with a therapist who specializes in the therapy that would be the best fit for how your symptoms of sexual abuse are manifesting. Evidence-based therapies for sexual trauma used at New Moon Psychotherapy include Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Prolonged Exposure (PE), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy for PTSD (DBT-PTSD), Sensimotor Psychotherapy, Somatic Psychotherapy.

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.
