Sexual Abuse Counselling

I have worked extensively with clients who have experienced sexual abuse, rape and assault. I have undergone further trauma training with Babette Rothschild and Miriam Taylor and am guided by Judith Herman’s ‘3 stages of trauma recovery’; which includes a focus on improving clients sense of safety and stabilisation at the beginning of the work. 

I support the people I work with to improve their understanding of how traumatic life events can impact on many areas of life and to help them manage the physical and emotional consequences of trauma. People report this helps them begin to live a life that feels healthier.

When clients feel more stable and resourceful, they can choose to move into processing their trauma; to better integrate their experiences into the story of their life.
