Liz Witzke
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CSAT
I provide a trauma-informed space to process the deep distress and afflictions associated with being a survivor of sexual abuse. In our sessions, we'll explore your experiences and work together to process pain, find clarity, and begin healing—drawing on my experience in trauma-focused therapy, my Gestalt training and 15 years in criminal defense. I provide a holistic approach that avoids re-traumatization and fosters trust, transparency, empowerment and resilience.

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.
