Life can feel overwhelming when you’re carrying the weight of abuse or domestic violence on your own. My goal is to support you as I genuinely feel that everyone holds their own map to healing, however, many often need help navigating their path forward. Whether you’re also working on trauma recovery, healing from abuse, or working through the stages of grief, you don’t have to go through it alone. I am grateful to be that source of support for current and new clients. I help people create, enforce, and maintain boundaries that may have once felt impossible to implement, giving them space to feel safer, more empowered, and more connected to themselves and others. I work from an eclectic approach, believing there is no one-size-fits-all path to therapy. Together we can help you break free from limiting patterns and beliefs.

Daniel Klassen
Psychologist, Provisional, (P7619) with CAP in Alberta & Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC 19147) with BCACC, for elsewhere in Canada
Domestic abuse and violence are tragically more common than many realize—and far more common than they should be. It often begins subtly, when one person in a close relationship becomes frustrated or emotionally unsettled, and begins to mistreat the other. At first, the behavior might seem minor—cutting remarks, dismissive tones, or small acts of disrespect. But when left unaddressed, these behaviors can intensify, growing more damaging over time.
Abuse tends to follow a disturbing pattern: pain and frustration in the more powerful individual are often displaced onto the less powerful, creating a cycle of harm marked by confusion, fear, anger, and diminishing well-being for everyone involved. If this cycle continues unchecked, it can escalate into serious physical and emotional abuse—and in the most extreme cases, even torture or death.
Daniel experienced this firsthand. As a youth, he was an innocent bystander in his own home, where unresolved anger and violence ultimately led to his hospitalization. From that experience, he came to understand the madness and tragedy of this cycle—how it is fueled by unprocessed emotional pain and the absence of healthy intervention.
Today, Daniel dedicates himself to helping others break free from the chaos. Through his work, he seeks to unravel the pain and confusion at the heart of abuse, foster understanding, and guide individuals and families toward healing, freedom, and the possibility of a safer, more compassionate future.

Masha Andreeva
Registered Psychotherapist, HonBA, DTATI, RP
I have extensive experience facilitating group and one-on-one art therapy for survivors of domestic abuse. I understand how abuse can distort your sense of self, leaving you feeling disconnected or unheard. Art therapy provides a safe space to process complex emotions, express what feels difficult to put into words, and rebuild self-worth. Through creative expression, you can reclaim your voice, restore a sense of control, and reconnect with your inner strength. My trauma-informed approach integrates mindfulness and body-based practices, allowing you to process at your own pace while fostering resilience and empowerment.

Romana Hrivnakova
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, RCC
Recovering from an abusive relationship requires a therapist who understands the profound impact of power, control, and fear on the human system. Drawing on over 15 years of experience on the frontlines of high-intensity crisis and mental health settings, I provide a safe, non-judgmental space to help you make sense of your experience.
We work together to address the Complex PTSD and survival strategies—like numbing or hyper-vigilance—that your system developed to keep you safe. My approach is deeply compassionate and focused on your current stability. Together, we work to help your 'parts' feel truly secure again, moving you from the shadow of the past toward a life of autonomy and genuine peace.

Barbara Freedman
Pre-Licensed Professional, M.Ed., OAMHP(Ontario Association of Mental Health Professionals-2704-G)
I have successfully worked with well over one hundred Victim Service clients as a Mental Health Worker /Counsellor. Most of these clients were victims of domestic violence. Leaving such a relationship often involves a mourning process. I have provided safety, along with education and awareness involving the difficulties in leaving such a relationship.
Many victims of domestic violence are in denial or do not recognize the behavior as abuse , as normal is what we live. These challenges involve perceived or real fear of retaliation or further harm, in addition to the economic reasons of financial or housing dependence on the abuser. Self blame particularly cultural or family pressures leads to internalized oppression and discourages speaking out. Their fear of not being. believed or being judged is among the most common reason that victims suffer in silence. For those sustaining the pain of domestic abuse I provide an understanding of this process in addition to offering these clients ,guidance, resources as well as the self agency to be able to achieve freedom from this mistreatment.
