Recognizing the profound impact that such experiences can have on one's mental and emotional health, we are committed to offering a safe, respectful, and confidential environment where healing can begin.

Understanding that the path to recovery is personal and unique, we work closely with each client to develop a therapeutic plan that respects their individual experiences and paces the healing process according to their comfort level. Our goal is not only to help survivors cope with the immediate effects of trauma but also to empower them to reclaim a sense of control and self-worth.

Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you have experienced sexual abuse, you may carry pain that feels difficult to put into words. You may experience shame, fear, anger, numbness, or confusion about your own reactions. Trauma can affect how you see yourself, how you trust others, and how your body responds in moments of closeness or stress. What happened to you was not your fault.
At Selah Counselling, we approach sexual abuse with deep compassion and clinical care. Your safety and pacing matter. We do not rush the process. We begin by building stabilization and nervous system regulation so your body feels safer before exploring traumatic memories. Over time, we gently process the impact of the abuse, address distorted beliefs that may have formed, and support you in reclaiming your voice and boundaries. Healing is possible. You deserve a space where you are believed, respected, and supported as you move toward strength and restoration.

Maor Bernshtein, MSW, RSW, Psychotherapist
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW, Psychotherapist
You may have spent years keeping what happened to yourself because even saying it out loud felt difficult. Shame after sexual abuse changes how you see yourself and makes trust and intimacy harder with someone you want to be close to. It reaches into how you relate to people and how much you trust yourself in parts of life far removed from what happened. In therapy, we look directly at the shame and self-blame, including the belief that what happened says something about who you are. What happened no longer gets to set the limits on who you become or what the rest of your life will look like.
