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. Sexual Abuse is absolutely considered traumatic.
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. Our therapists can help you identify the roots of your struggles, offer a safe space for respite and together with you create a custom treatment plan to overcome them.

Sexual Abuse
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.

Sexual Abuse
Sierra Gaudreault
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Sexual violence can have a devastating impact on our relationship with our bodies, our identity, others and the world around us. It can be particularly isolating because we often blame ourselves, feel blamed by others or are made to feel inadequate when we cannot simply "get over it". I offer Cognitive Processing Therapy to help you rebuild your relationship with safety, trust, intimacy, control and self-esteem. I also teach you coping skills to manage emotions and dissociation.

Sexual Abuse
Peter Stathakos
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Registered Social Worker, BBA, MDiv, MSW, CMAT, CSAT
Being assaulted, raped, or surviving incest is a trauma you did not ask for and never deserved. The pain is often compounded by the reactions of others, leaving you feeling even more broken under the weight of the abuser's power, manipulation, and lingering, silent control.
I have worked extensively with survivors of incest, human trafficking, and other unimaginable experiences, helping them heal and reclaim their lives. I understand how frightening it can be to share your story, but I am a professional who is both equipped and committed to guiding you through your healing journey.
