Sexual Abuse
Olivia Fermi
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RTC, ConRes Cert
Sexual abuse can happen in many ways. The damage from sexual abuse can be severe with even "minor" violations. If you know or suspect you've been sexually abused, counselling can help. I offer a wholistic approach starting with hearing your story and holding space for you to share your emotions. With body and breathwork we can find a balance that's healing not re-traumatizing. We would also look at the role of culture, religion, and intergenerational trauma -- healing on these levels can be very powerful.

Sexual Abuse
Sanofer Ansari
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, MACP
Approach: Trauma-informed, emotion-focused, somatic and IFS-informed approaches.
I prioritize safety, choice, control, and the client's pace. Therapy may focus on understanding trauma responses, grounding, emotional regulation, self-compassion, boundaries, and rebuilding trust in oneself. Trauma processing is approached carefully and only when the client has developed sufficient stability and readiness.

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.

Your Story Counselling Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MSc, CCC, RMFT, RSW, RP
All of us go through the winding footpaths of life and at one point in time experience moments that create long lasting impacts and changes in ourselves, our environment, and in the trajectory of our lives. Sometimes those experience can be positive, and sometimes they are negative. These negative experiences are we we define as traumatic events. Sexual Abuse is absolutely considered traumatic.
The experience of trauma and traumatic events can be painful and excruciating. Sometimes these experiences leave us at more than just at a loss, but can continue to cause us pain and fear. These experiences can alter the way your mind works. Creating physical and emotional responses to triggers that remind you of your trauma. Even when you are unaware of these triggers, you can be left feeling overactive and hyper-vigilant to certain moments and interactions. The post traumatic consequences (often known as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder or PTSD) of these triggers is that you can feel like you are on constant alert to prevent future danger and pain; even when there is none to be presently found. If left untreated it can lead to one feeling loss and overwhelmed and increase rates of risky or dangerous behaviours (i.e. increased aggression and violence, increased substance use, increased physical and mental distress).
Our goal is help you heal. We offer a safe space and environment to begin the process of talking about your pain as a means to start processing what had happened to you. Talking about trauma doesn't always mean retelling your story. We work with each individual uniquely in order to find the path of healing that is more effective for them. We utilize a variety of techniques including a highly effective form of trauma therapy called EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to help folks through this process in order to help you rediscover hope and empowerment. Understanding our past gives us an ability to take control what we want our future to look like. We believe that all people deserve to live a life free from fear and pain, all of us deserve a little help along the way. Our therapists can help you identify the roots of your struggles, offer a safe space for respite and together with you create a custom treatment plan to overcome them.
