Welcome
The feelings and effects of childhood sexual abuse may be quite overwhelming and difficult to deal with. You may feel you don't know what you are feeling much of the time. Sharing your feelings and experiences in a safe, understanding and confidential environment may help you better experience and manage your feelings by being heard and taken seriously.
Counselling is about making sense of the present, in relation to the past. Some survivors of childhood sexual abuse may be plagued by memories in the form of distressing flashbacks, body memories, mental images or nightmares. Talking about these images and memories whilst being heard and supported may often help ease the pain and reduce the power and impact of these memories.
Many adults and young adolescents, who were sexually abused as children and did not tell anyone at the time, believe it is too late to talk about it now. It is never too late. Trust your instinct and seek help when the time is right for you. Healing from the effects of childhood sexual abuse is not something you have to do alone and we invite you to browse our website for additional information on the type of support and services that we offer.
