Abuse therapy is specialised counselling that helps survivors process their experiences, heal from trauma, and rebuild their lives. It provides a safe, confidential space to work through feelings of shame, fear, and confusion with a trained professional who understands trauma.
If you have experienced any form of abuse—whether recent or in the past—and find it affecting your daily life, relationships, self-esteem, or mental health, therapy can help. Signs include anxiety, depression, difficulty trusting others, intrusive memories, or feeling disconnected from yourself.
You are always in control of what you share. Effective trauma therapy does not require you to relive every detail. Your therapist will use evidence-based techniques that help you process trauma safely, at your own pace, sharing only what feels comfortable.
Our therapists are experienced in supporting survivors of all forms of abuse including emotional, physical, sexual, psychological abuse, domestic violence, childhood abuse, and neglect. We will match you with someone who has specific experience with your situation.
Yes, research shows online therapy is equally effective as in-person therapy for trauma. Many survivors find online sessions more comfortable as they can be in their own safe space. Video therapy allows for the same connection and therapeutic techniques as face-to-face sessions.
The duration varies based on individual needs. Some people benefit from a few months of therapy, while others may need longer-term support. Your therapist will work with you to set goals and review progress regularly. Healing is not linear, and there is no rush.
