Teo Counselling Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, CCC, RP (Qualifying)
The trauma of sexual abuse can have long-lasting effects on mental and emotional well-being. I specialize in sexual abuse therapy, providing a safe and compassionate space for survivors to heal. Through a combination of trauma-informed care, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and EMDR, I help clients process the trauma, reclaim their sense of safety, and rebuild self-esteem. My approach focuses on empowering survivors to regain control of their lives, overcome feelings of shame and guilt, and foster emotional healing. Whether you're looking to heal from past abuse or navigating its ongoing impact, I’m here to support you in your journey toward recovery

Spencer Copland
Registered Psychotherapist, RCC, MCP
Experiences of sexual abuse and assault can have profound and lasting impacts, affecting how you feel in your body, your sense of safety, and your ability to trust yourself and others. You may notice symptoms such as anxiety, shame, dissociation, emotional overwhelm, difficulty with boundaries, or feeling disconnected from your body or relationships. These responses are understandable ways your nervous system has tried to cope with the traumatic experiences.
In our work together, we will move at a pace that prioritizes your sense of safety and control. You will never be asked to share more than you feel ready to, and we will focus on creating stability, grounding, and choice throughout the process. Using a trauma-informed and attachment-focused approach, we will support your nervous system while working with the impact of what you’ve experienced in a way that feels manageable and safe.
I draw from approaches such as EMDR, IFS, ACT, Mindfulness-Based CBT, and somatic-based practices, tailoring our work to your needs and readiness. EMDR can be particularly helpful in processing traumatic memories and reducing their emotional intensity over time, while other approaches support grounding, self-compassion, and reconnection to self and body. Together, we’ll focus on healing in a way that respects you and supports a growing sense of safety, empowerment, and integration.
I offer both in-person and virtual counselling sessions. You’re welcome to reach out or visit my website to book a free 20-minute phone consultation to see if we’re a good fit.
