Domestic Abuse or Violence
Samantha Diminutto
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CCC, MPS-AT
Domestic abuse and violence are topics that are being talked about more often in mainstream media, but unfortunately there is still a lot of misinformation about these topics out there. There can be more confusion internally about the topic of domestic abuse, about whether what is happening to you is normal or not, about what you should do. Without judgement, I bring a compassionate and clarifying presence to my clients through these difficult situations. We approach safety at whatever pace feels good, and help with transitions (within or outside of a relationship) based on individual preferences and needs.

Nina Hopmeier
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC)
Domestic violence is often associated with emotions such as shame and embarrassment. People who have been abused often struggle to set boundaries, express needs in a healthy way, and identify red flags early on in relationships. Our therapy experience will largely involve processing the emotions that underlie the traumatic event and process regrets from within the relationship. Work around increasing self-worth and self-love will also be a fundamental factor in order to help you develop compassion and nurturance for the difficulties that you have endured.

Shannon MacGregor
Counsellor/Therapist, RTC, MTC, CLC
Domestic Abuse or Violence is any act carried out with the intention of physically or emotionally harming another person who is in relationship. The purpose of all abuse is to control the victim’s behavior by inducing fear to gain power and control. If you have been subjected to abuse in your life, your nervous system is likely still activated and we can work through your trauma responses to help you self regulate and manage your relationship with the abuser.
