Domestic Abuse
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.

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.

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.
