Sexual Abuse
ASR Counselling and Psychotherapy, Attachment and Trauma-informed
Registered Social Worker, HonBA, BSW, MSW, RSW, EMDR Certified
Sexual abuse not only violates the body but can also violate the mind. It impacts relationships and can distort what it means to feel safe. It is a thief of empowerment and self-agency. Our work will aim to take your body and your mind back. My 22 years of experience has allowed me to witness how healing wounded parts and processing stuck emotions and triggers, has allowed people to reclaim control and rediscover their inner strength.

Sexual Abuse
Angelica Esposito - AE Therapy
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW, EMDR Therapist
Healing from sexual abuse can be a complex and deeply personal journey. The trauma left behind may affect your sense of safety, trust, and self-worth. In therapy, we create a safe and compassionate space where you can process your experiences at your own pace. EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) can be particularly effective in helping to reduce the emotional distress associated with traumatic memories, allowing you to reclaim your sense of self and well-being. Together, we can work through the pain, helping you rebuild trust, heal from past wounds, and move forward toward a place of empowerment and peace. You don’t have to carry this burden alone. One of the unique aspects of EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is that you don’t have to disclose all the details of your traumatic experience for it to be effective. EMDR works by focusing on the emotions, body sensations, and thoughts connected to the trauma, allowing your brain to reprocess these experiences without the need to relive or discuss every detail. This can make the healing process feel safer and less overwhelming, particularly for survivors of sexual abuse or other deeply personal traumas. Together, we’ll work through the healing process in a way that feels right for you, offering support every step of the way.

Sexual Abuse
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.

Sexual Abuse
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.
* * * If you decide not to go with our clinic, please ensure that your therapist is trained in EVIDENCE-BASED Psychotherapies for trauma - this will be the difference between months and years of therapy * * *
