Sexual Abuse
Jaswir Dhillon
Registered Psychotherapist, MA
Experiences of sexual abuse can have a profound impact on your sense of safety, self-worth, relationships, and connection to your body. You may find yourself struggling with trust, shame, anxiety, difficult emotions, or patterns that developed as ways of coping and surviving. I offer a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space where you can explore these experiences at your own pace. Together, we'll work toward understanding the impact of trauma, restoring a sense of safety and empowerment, and fostering healing and self-compassion.

Sexual Abuse
Mary Mikhail
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, BSW, MACP, RSW
Experiences of sexual abuse can affect how you feel about yourself, your relationships, and your sense of safety. You deserve support that respects your boundaries and does not pressure you to share more than you’re ready to.
In therapy, we can begin with what you’re experiencing now and explore ways to cope with the effects of trauma. If and when you choose, we can also make space to understand how past experiences may be connected to current difficulties. You remain in control of what you share and the pace of our work. Together, we can focus on the support, skills, and goals that feel most important to you.

Sexual Abuse is widespread and deeply disturbing in complex and painful ways. Therapy is the space to make sense of the complex, paradoxical and painful angry feeling around it.

Sexual Abuse
Masha Andreeva
Registered Psychotherapist, HonBA, DTATI, RP
I have substantial experience facilitating both group and one-on-one art therapy for survivors of sexual abuse. I understand how abuse can distort your sense of self, leaving you feeling disconnected or powerless. Through art therapy, you can safely express and process emotions that may be difficult to verbalize, while reconnecting with your inner strength. The creative process provides a path to reclaim your voice, rebuild self-worth, and restore a sense of control. I am passionate about supporting you in reclaiming your life and your sense of self, helping you move toward empowerment and transformation.
