Sexual Abuse
Azin Heydari
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Sexual abuse comes in various forms, but they all have one consequence, a disconnection to the self, and a mistrust and disconnection from others. After all, you’ve been invaded by someone else at one point in your life. But it doesn’t mean that your body and personal space is lost. It means that we need to come on full force to protect it and nurture it so it understands that now it’s safe, and to rid it of the energy/energies of those who once preoccupied it by unpacking the trauma.

Sexual Abuse
Whitney Reinhart
Registered Psychotherapist, MA., RP.
The effects of trauma and sexual abuse can leave us feeling vulnerable and unsafe long after the event itself. So often people can be left feeling hopeless, disconnected, and ashamed. Healing these wounds are essential to developing a strong sense of self, positive self view, and safety within relationships. I work from a trauma-informed perspective and pull from approaches that will allow us to build an understanding of the protective strategies formed to survive the emotional and mental impact of the abuse, and cultivate self-acceptance and trust with others.

Sexual Abuse
Peter Stathakos
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Registered Social Worker, BBA, MDiv, MSW, CMAT, CSAT
Being assaulted, raped or being an incest-survivor is a hurt that you did not ask for or ever deserve. What is even worse is the reaction that others have, if you even tell them, because you can feel broken in response to the abusers power, manipulation and lingering silent control. I have worked with many incest survivors and trafficked humans and children to heal from experiences of the unimaginable. I know it can be scary but I am a professional that you can handle hearing and helping you through your experiences.
Reach out today to book an introductory call and get the care that you deserve.

Therapy With Haley

Haley works from an eclectic approach to address the multi-faceted concerns that you bring to therapy sessions. What makes her stand out as a therapist is her focus on you in a holistic way.

She highly values honesty, collaboration, respect, and empathy, all of which are evident in the way she approaches all sessions. She will work with you to explore yourself and encourage healing, growth, and reaching self-identified goals while working within your window of tolerance.

Sexual abuse falls under my extensive experience and knowledge in trauma for the past 10 years.

Sexual Abuse
Clare Karasik
Registered Social Worker, MSW, BSW, RSW
I use a trauma-informed approach while supporting survivors to live in the present moment, reduce overwhelm from thoughts of the past, and feel safe. If you have experienced trauma you may be living with normal but unwanted effects of trauma, which may include anxiety, depression, fear, shame, anger, sleep issues, dissociation, and issues in relationships. I work with people to make new meaning from painful past experiences, regulate unwanted physiological experiences, and establish a sense of safety in their body and mind. I support people to develop a sense of awareness and acceptance of how their body and mind is responding to traumatic events by providing evidence-based information about what trauma is and how we can attend to it. I have experience working with survivors of childhood abuse as well as survivors of violence/abuse that occurred in adulthood.

I believe in the importance of empowerment and self-discovery, and I am committed to walking alongside you as you reclaim your sense of safety, restore trust in yourself and others, and cultivate a life of meaning and fulfillment beyond trauma.
