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.

Saguenay is a regional city in Quebec's Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean region, set among dramatic fjord landscapes in a part of the province that is culturally distinct, strongly francophone, and economically anchored by aluminum production and the forestry industry. Geographic isolation, cold and dark winters, and the economic pressures of a resource-dependent region contribute to elevated rates of depression and seasonal affective disorder, and mental health services are delivered almost entirely in French through the CIUSSS du Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean. The University of Quebec at Chicoutimi (UQAC) has a psychology department that contributes trained professionals to the regional mental health workforce, and both public and private services are available in the city. Common therapy concerns include depression, anxiety, relationship and family stress, and the particular challenges of rural and regional life in a community where access to specialist care may require significant travel or telehealth.
