Transforming Emotions
Psychologist
Sadly, sexual abuse still too often hides in the shadows. Individuals of all genders and sexual orientations often feel compelled to hide their pain from places of shame, self-blame, or fear. Too often, survivors of sexual abuse have not been believed, or have been silenced for others' comfort or in the service of preserving the status quo. At Transforming Emotions, our trauma-informed therapists are ready to help support you through the painful work of healing and recovery at a pace that works for you. We start with a focus on personal safety and building trust with your therapist. Next steps include reducing feelings of shame and and fear, and proceeding to process any memories that haunt you while understanding that those truly responsible for sexual abuse are those who perpetrate it. We end with helping you integrate a new, calmer, more confident and grounded sense of self, helping you live more truly in the present rather than being tethered to the past. Reach out today to help us better understand your unique needs. We will share our recommendations for therapists who may be the best match for you, and we will provide access to a free 20 minute consultation with team members you may be interested in working with allowing you to tell us which team member feels like the right fit for you. Contact us today to take your next step towards healing.

Angela Popovici
Psychologist, Registered Provisional Psychologist, B.Sc Psych, MACP
I provide a safe, non-judgmental, and compassionate space for individuals healing from sexual abuse and trauma. I understand the profound emotional, psychological, and relational impacts of sexual abuse and believes that recovery begins with feeling validated, supported, and empowered.
Using an integrative approach I help clients process traumatic experiences, rebuild self-esteem, and develop coping strategies for emotional regulation and safety. My approach emphasizes empowerment, trust, and self-compassion, helping survivors reclaim a sense of control and begin to heal at their own pace.
I provide a confidential and supportive environment where clients can work through trauma, restore personal strength, and move toward a more hopeful, empowered future—one compassionate step at a time.

Roger Thiessen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CCC, MPS, M.Div
Approximately 30% of females in Canada, along with many males, have experienced sexual trauma. As a survivor myself, I know its impact. The long-term effects of sexual trauma include shame from victim blaming, relationship difficulties, and even physiological issues, such as obesity. I worked in a sexual assault centre for many years, and have counselled people in the sex industry. As hopeless as things can seem, I know that sexual assault victims can not only survive but thrive, experiencing a life of freedom, fullness and rich relationship.
