Your past does not have to be your future. We carry the baggage of our past trauma with us and it impacts all aspects of our life. Therapy can help you to set down that baggage and move on with your life. Many people have healed from the pain of sexual abuse and you can too. Please contact me if you would like to set up a free intake and we can get started on the process of helping you move forward with your future.
I have several years experience working in an agency that supports survivors of sexual assault and supporters of survivors of sexual assault. Here I provided individual and group counselling utilizing a variety of modalities that catered to each individual.
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.
Have you experienced sexual abuse or assault across your life? Whether it be one incident or many, sexual violations shock our nervous system creating a rupture in our sense of safety with others and in our own bodies. We can provide you with a safe space to discuss your experiences of sexual abuse and assault. We also have clinicians who specialize in resolving trauma to allow safety to be found again. Please contact us to begin this work and schedule your first appointment.
