Overview

Who It's For

This program is for women who currently feel or have previously felt powerlessness as a result of experiencing a range of controlling and abusive behaviours.

How We Help

Survivors of domestic abuse can find themselves feeling confused, uncertain and full of doubt. This group workshop provides a safe and caring environment to connect with other women who have had similar experiences and gain valuable information.

What to Expect

Sessions are small, with around eight to 12 participants. Our therapists will encourage but won’t force you to share your experiences. They’ll work with you to develop strategies for coping and support you in setting goals for the future.
