ITRG - A Virtual Healing Community
"And the day came when the risk to remain tight in the bud was more painful than the risk it took to bloom."
- Anais Nin
Healing from incest trauma is a deeply personal journey, but you don’t have to do it alone. The shame and stigma surrounding this trauma often lead to deep isolation, making it difficult to reach out for support.
This online group program is designed to provide a safe, structured, and compassionate space where women can heal together - in the presence of others who truly understand.
We believe that healing happens in connection. Through shared experiences, mutual support, and a guided process, this program offers an opportunity to move from surviving to reclaiming your sense of self and thriving.
The program is divided into three levels, each building upon the last.
Participants are encouraged to move at their own pace, ensuring they feel ready before progressing.
All sessions take place online, allowing members to join from the comfort and safety of their own space. This is a small, intimate group, exclusively for women.
This group is facilitated by a trained professional who is also a survivor, offering both lived experience and therapeutic guidance. Having walked this path herself, I understand firsthand the complexity of healing from incest trauma - and how powerful it is to do so in the presence of others who truly get it.
Building safety, stabilization and basic coping skills
Deepening the work: exploring the wounds, releasing the shame
Reclaiming power, identity and thriving
I am a registered wellness and therapeutic professional counsellor and an incest survivor. With both professional expertise and lived experience, I provide a compassionate, trauma-informed approach to healing.
I understand the challenges of this journey and am dedicated to fostering a space of safety, empowerment, and connection.
If you’re unsure, you’re not alone, many survivors wonder if their experience “counts” or if they’re ready for this kind of work. This group is for adult women (inclusive of trans and non-binary folks who feel connected to womanhood) who have experienced sexual harm within family relationships or close familial dynamics — even if it wasn’t labeled as abuse at the time. If you’re seeking a space that honors safety, gentleness, and connection while exploring healing, this may be for you.
Incest refers to any form of sexual abuse, assault, or coercion that happens within a family system or dynamic. This includes abuse by parents, siblings, cousins, grandparents, stepparents, and even close family friends or figures who held a trusted or familial role in your life. Whether it happened once or over a period of time, your experience is valid and worthy of care.
No one is required to share beyond their comfort level. The group focuses on healing, connection, and moving forward rather than retelling traumatic events.
Completely. Most people feel anxious about opening up in a group setting — especially around something as sensitive as sexual trauma. We spend time building trust slowly, and you're encouraged to take things at your own pace.
Yes. Confidentiality is a core value of this group. Everything shared in our sessions is held with deep respect and will never be disclosed outside the group. Group members will also be asked to agree to this shared commitment. Your safety, emotional and otherwise, comes first.
No. This is a support and psychoeducation group led by a trained facilitator. While it provides healing tools, it is not a replacement for individual therapy.
That’s okay! You are welcome to reach out for a consultation to see if this is the right time for you.
That's okay! Reach out and let's chat.
Together we can better asses if this program is right for you. I know challenging it can be to take this step.
