Domestic Abuse
Samantha Williams-Lauder
Registered Social Worker, MSW,RSW
Domestic abuse can leave you feeling afraid, confused, isolated, ashamed, or unsure of what is safe to do next. Therapy can provide a supportive, trauma-informed space to process what you have experienced, strengthen self-trust, explore options, and rebuild safety. This work is paced carefully, with attention to emotional, relational, and physical safety.

Lia Khalili
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP)
At Bright Start Bright Future, I specialize in providing therapy for individuals who have experienced domestic abuse or violence. Domestic abuse can have devastating effects on physical and mental well-being, but healing and empowerment are possible with the right support.
In our therapy sessions, I create a safe and confidential space where you can explore your experiences, express your emotions, and work towards healing from the trauma of domestic abuse. Together, we'll address the emotional and psychological impact of abuse, develop coping strategies, and rebuild your sense of self-worth and autonomy.
My approach to therapy for domestic abuse survivors is trauma-informed and client-centered, meaning that I prioritize your safety, autonomy, and empowerment throughout the healing process. I draw from evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to help you process your experiences and move towards healing.
Recovering from domestic abuse is a courageous journey, but you don't have to walk it alone. I'm here to provide you with the support, validation, and tools you need to heal from the trauma of abuse and rebuild a life free from violence. If you're ready to take the first step towards healing, I'm here to support you every step of the way.

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. Domestic Abuse and Violence are absolutely considered traumatic. Our therapists can help you identify the roots of your struggles and create a custom treatment plan to overcome them. Head over to our website to learn more!
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.

Domestic Abuse
Samantha Mirarchi | Wild Sage Therapy
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
If you’ve experienced abuse, you may still be carrying the invisible weight of it, even long after the situation has ended. Maybe you’re unsure if what you went through “counts” as abuse, or you’ve been told you were too sensitive, overreacting, or to just move on. But deep down, you know something didn’t feel safe, and it’s still affecting you.
We offer a compassionate, non-judgmental space where your story will be heard and believed. In therapy, we can gently explore what you’ve been through, how it’s impacted you, and how to begin healing from it, at your pace. We’ll also support you in rebuilding your sense of safety, trust, and self-worth.
You deserve support. You deserve to feel safe. And you don’t have to heal alone.
