I am not this hair, I am not this skin,
I am the soul that lives within.
Rumi
Serious abuse, whether an individual event or long term emotional, physical or sexual abuse, can cause Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, (PTSD).
We regularly work with survivors of childhood sexual, physical and/or emotional abuse. We can offer psychotherapy for long term abuse, or EMDR or Lifespan Integration for shorter term, "one off" episodes. When safe, and with the agreement of the client, we can combine these approaches.
We work gently, at the client's pace. While we are happy to be contacted by insurance companies, please don't bother to contact us if you want abuse work done in a hurry. Abused clients have serious difficulties with trust, (of course - think about it), and this work takes time.
We can offer trauma and abuse therapy with the choice of a male or female therapist.
I am not this hair, I am not this skin,
I am the soul that lives within.
