Domestic Abuse or Violence
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.

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.

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.
