If you were recently arrested and facing criminal charges before the Court, there is help for you.

If you know you sexually assaulted someone, whether an adult or minor, but they haven’t gone to the police and/or no one knows what you did, you can still get help.

If your devices have been confiscated by the police and you think you might be charged, there is help for you.

If you’re so ashamed of your secret struggle and too afraid to talk about it, there is help for you.

If you experience sexual attraction towards minors, there is support and treatment to help you deal with your sexuality.

The first step is acceptance, acknowledging that you’ve caused serious harm and reaching out to get the help you need so that no one else has to be victimized.

Getting help is about doing the right thing. Don’t wait until it’s too late.

At TRC, we offer private, professional, compassionate therapeutic services for men who have offended or who fear they might.

Thank you for being here. You matter. Your pain matters. What happened to you was not your fault.

Sexual trauma runs deep and impacts every part of a person for years afterwards. The impacts of childhood sexual abuse can often reverberate throughout a person’s entire life.

You are not responsible for what happened to you. But you absolutely have a say in what happens next.

It takes incredible courage to acknowledge your pain and to reach out for help. We are so glad you are here!

At TRC, we create space for survivor-led and professionally facilitated accountability processes that empower you to show up as your authentic self. We want you to feel seen, heard, believed, and supported.

You may choose to begin your own healing journey. You also have the option to ask the person who harmed you to enter into a parallel treatment process through TRC. Either way, now is the time to step out of the shame spiral and step into your strength. Our therapists are highly skilled in supporting your journey to healing and wholeness.

You know how the system works. Carceral environments inhibit rehabilitation and recovery. A punitive approach does not solve the root causes of offending behaviour. There is a better way to get your clients the help they need. We can help. 

We are here to support you by supporting your clients by bridging the treatment gap and addressing the root causes of sexual behaviours effectively and compassionately. We work with clients in a parallel forensic process that can support their legal proceedings by providing the Court with reports on a client’s progress in treatment. We have found that judges are more likely to reduce sentences if it can be demonstrated that the offender is making a genuine effort to participate in treatment.  

We are Canadian-owned and Ontario-based. We’ve been serving this niche for over 15 years. Without access to comprehensive treatment, community safety is compromised. When we encourage offenders to participate in a treatment program uniquely designed to address their sexual behaviours, we make the world a safer place. Everyone wins.

You’re in such a tough position. We see you. We see the pain you’re in. You never imagined this in a million years. You didn’t see it coming. You’re human. We are so sorry you are having to face the consequences of someone else’s actions, even if they are someone you love deeply. And we also see how hard you’re trying to hold everything together.

If the person they harmed is also someone you love (e.g. a child, a parent, a sibling, a friend, etc.), you are in a uniquely difficult position. And we understand and empathize with this horrible complexity too. No one should have to go through a nightmare like this. And yet, here you are, enduring the horror and trying to find your way through it.

Everything you feel is valid. All the maybe complicated, maybe tangled up, maybe confusing emotions make sense. You’re not crazy. You didn’t ask for this. This has upended your life and it’s hard to figure out where you go from here.

Here at TRC, we get it. We are not going to pathologize you for wanting to support a person who did something so wrong, but who you love and care so much about. We are here to help you support them in the way they actually need to be supported. We’re here to help you by helping them get the treatment they need so that you don’t have to go through something like this ever again.

Watching a friend or loved one in pain can leave you feeling helpless, frustrated, unsure of how to support them, and even angry at the person who hurt them. Your role here is important. 

As a friend or loved one, you can take many lifesaving actions to support the people in your life who are hurting. You can stay present, acknowledge their pain, be a safe person, and encourage them to seek support. Bearing witness to someone else's suffering can be the very thing that allows them to move forward. You can help them feel seen, believed, and like they matter. You can help them get the help they need to heal.

In order to support a loved one going through challenges, it is critical that you have the care you need. At TRC, we believe that healing happens in relationship and community. And we want to make sure that both you and your loved one get the help you need to navigate the hard days.

Relational psychotherapy supports couples, families, and friends to strengthen their connection, rebuild trust, and navigate stressful times.

Couple therapy supports you, your partner(s), and the unique entity that is your relationship, as you build a strong foundation for a secure-functioning connection based on healthy attachment. Healing old wounds together allows for deeper intimacy, trust, playfulness, joy, and loving connection.

Sexual offending, sexual trauma, betrayal, infidelity, boundary violations, unhealed baggage from the past, etc. can destroy relationships. In these situations, we support couples towards repair and healing after complex relational ruptures.

Victim-offender dialogue is a restorative justice practice that is survivor-led and professionally supported. It enables accountability in action, promotes healing and reconciliation when possible, and facilitates reintegration while prioritizing safety.

This intensive process is only offered to individuals if the offender is currently enrolled in, has completed, or would be willing to enroll in our sex-offender treatment program.

Brainspotting (BSP) is a powerful therapeutic tool used for processing emotional wounds and traumatic experiences to resolution by harnessing the brain’s innate capacity to heal, transform, and recover from blocks and negative experiences.

We provide preliminary, interim, and full length reports for court (e.g. sentencing), parole hearings, probation, etc. Our reports are able to confirm enrollment in treatment and/or provide a summary of your progress in treatment. Your lawyer may also request the clinician to provide a professional opinion on risk of recidivism, make recommendations for future treatment direction, or comment on other unique issues as it relates to formulating your legal defense.

Our reports are billed at the clinician’s hourly rate plus HST. Reports must be requested in writing (e.g. email) at least 4 weeks prior to its due date. A retainer agreement and advance payment will be required as well.

All reports will accurately reflect the client’s progress in treatment, including any inhibitors to progress and recommendations for addressing them. If, for any reason, your clinician does not feel comfortable providing a report, you will be advised accordingly.

If you have a sentencing date or parole hearing upcoming, you may discuss this with your forensic psychotherapist directly. You may also have your lawyer contact your forensic psychotherapist via email at their personal email address or at connect@torontorelationships.ca.

A variety of group programs are offered throughout the year for offenders, survivors, partners and families, respectively.

Addressing Sexual Behaviours is our flagship forensic series for men who have offended.
