Domestic Abuse or Violence
New Moon Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MACP, MSW, RSW, RP, RP(Q)
We believe you and it's not your fault. Let's start with this because it's important.
Regardless of whether you call it domestic abuse, domestic violence, or interpersonal violence, this form of trauma and abuse can occur in the context of romantic or family relationships and can include physical, emotional, and sexual abuse. The effects of this form of abuse can have seriously implications on a survivor's mental and physical health. Common effects are depression, anxiety, addiction, PTSD and Complex PTSD as well as injury, chronic pain, and disability. If left untreated, these difficulties will not resolve and often survivors will notice that they continue to experience patterns of abuse in future relationships.
If you're going through it right now, or have been battling the symptoms for a while, you might feel hopeless and alone. You might not believe that it is possible to get help and for things to improve. Domestic abuse does not have to be a life sentence - at New Moon Psychotherapy we work extensively with survivors of domestic violence and are trained in evidence based therapies to help you recover. These therapies include: Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Prolonged Exposure (PE), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy for PTSD (DBT-PTSD), Sensimotor Psychotherapy, Somatic Psychotherapy.
We will work with you at any stage that you're at and whatever situation you're in - if you are still in the abusive situation and do not want to leave or are contemplating leaving, if you have recently left or have been away from the abuse for a while. We promise not to judge, to work with you at your pace, and to tailor your treatment plan to your needs.
Reach out today for a complimentary 15-minute consultation to learn how we can help and have your questions answered.

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.

Kate Paul
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
I'm Kate, a Trauma & Couples Therapist specialized in working with adults - individuals & couples - who have experienced Interpersonal Trauma. Interpersonal Trauma is any unhealthy interaction between yourself and another person and it could occur at any time in your life, yet its impact is felt in the present. You may feel sad, anxious, lack a feeling of self-worth, scared of what’s coming next, struggling in your relationships. Interpersonal Trauma often creates invisible shackles which result in a feeling of being stuck and powerless. We will work together to navigate the impact of abuse to empower you to create the life experience you desire.

Domestic Abuse or Violence
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.

Domestic Abuse or Violence
Lauren Kalvari
Registered Social Worker, PhD, MSW, RSW
I work with adults recovering from coercive control, emotional abuse, intimate partner violence, psychological abuse, and psychologically harmful relationships. I have particular experience supporting survivors from religious, culturally conservative, or highly interconnected communities, where abuse may be minimized, spiritually justified, or complicated by family, communal, or institutional pressures.
Therapy focuses on restoring safety, rebuilding trust in oneself, understanding trauma responses, and working through fear, shame, relational confusion, and the lasting impact of coercive dynamics. My approach is trauma-informed, culturally aware, and attentive to the broader social and meaning-making worlds in which abuse occurs, including experiences of spiritual abuse, religious harm, and loss of community.
