Support For Survivors

Support For Survivors

The main area of support provided by the centre is the provision of counselling for survivors of sexual violence and abuse.

The counselling service provides support for survivors and a safe space to speak about their experience along with the opportunity to examine feelings in relation to the traumatic experience of rape and sexual assault. We place a very high emphasis on confidentiality for all our counselling services.

All counsellors are fully trained, psychotherapists with additional specialist training in the area of sexual violence.

What Is Counselling/Therapy?

What Is Counselling/Therapy?

The traumatic experience of sexual abuse, sexual harassment and rape is carried by many in our community in silence. Through counselling and therapy, CSLRCC offers support to survivors and helps them to examine their feelings around the abuse they have experienced and how they are coping with their present lives.

Counsellors/therapists are not there to judge you or tell you what they think you should do. You are the expert on your life and what is right for you. Whatever decisions you make are completely your own.
