Sexual Abuse
Ps. I Love You Psychotherapy Inc.
Registered Psychotherapist, HBEd, MA (Hons.), Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Sexual abuse treatment for survivors and Sex offender treatment is different than other types of therapy for adults. Treatment for people who have sexually abused a child is a serious and encouraging process. Typically, it focuses on learning specialized strategies for stopping abusive behavior, being accountable, and taking responsibility for harm done. For persons who experience sexual abuse treatment is based on a compassionate, trauma, and emotionally focused lens. I often use DBT in these cases as well.

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.

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.

Grounded Minds Therapy
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
You can heal from abuse, trauma and PTSD. You are important, and what you've experienced is important. Trauma can affect our lives in so many different ways. Survivors can lose hope, struggle with depression and crippling anxiety, find it difficult to work or maintain relationships, and may live in a constant state of fear. You may feel like you're completely alone and that no one understands what you've experienced. You might miss the "old you" or want things to go back to the way they were before- this is completely natural. If you're struggling to manage symptoms of trauma or PTSD, the therapists at Grounded Minds are here for you. We can help you process your experiences, learn coping tools to manage your symptoms and free yourself from the heaviness weighing you down. If you're ready to take the first step, please reach out to schedule a therapy session or free consultation call.

New Moon Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MACP, MSW, RSW, RP, RP(Q)
One of the greatest challenges in healing from sexual abuse is opening up about it to others. Many survivors feel ashamed of what happened to them and feel that there is something they could have done to stop it. Others start to question if it even happened or if it was just some big misunderstanding. We know that's not how this works. What happened was done to you, the way you responded was the only option. You did exactly what you needed to do.
Sexual trauma can make us feel like we're broken - like there's something wrong with us or like we're permanently damaged. These thoughts are symptoms, not facts. We can help you see things differently - this part of your story does not define you.
Imagine a life in which you don't have to keep trying to please others, to struggle silently while trying to keep it all together on the outside, to feel like you can't trust or that you're out of control and to put others' needs consistently above your own.
Our goal is to help you regain power and control in your life and to release some of the heaviness that you've been carrying. We want you to begin seeing the world as a space in which trust and safety are not foreign concepts. A world in which you don't have to hide from your past or distract yourself to get through the day.
Helping people overcome their traumas is the work that makes us get out of bed in the mornings. We specialize in trauma related to sexual abuse including childhood sexual abuse, incest, rape, sexual assault, human trafficking, and sexual harassment both within and outside the workplace.
Please reach out - even if you don't quite believe things can get better - so that we can talk about how we might be able to help.
We offer 1:1, couples, family and group therapy focused specifically on healing from sexual abuse and will connect you with a therapist who specializes in the therapy that would be the best fit for how your symptoms of sexual abuse are manifesting. Evidence-based therapies for sexual trauma used at New Moon Psychotherapy 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.

I have a profound interest in supporting survivors of sexual violence, childhood sexual abuse and intimate partner violence. Dealing with the aftermath of sexual abuse can be incredibly challenging, but it's important to remember that healing and recovery are possible. These experiences can affect individuals in various ways - emotionally, physically, and psychologically. However, there are supportive pathways to navigate through this difficult time. It's crucial to recognize that what happened to you is not your fault and not your whole story. Your feelings of fear, anger, confusion, and isolation are valid reactions, and help is there whenever you need it.
