Counselling for Women by Women

We offer a free and confidential Counselling service, where women can speak to another woman. You can speak to us for an hour a week for as long as you want (this will be reviewed with your counsellor). You do not need to be referred on by anyone, as long as you are a woman who has experienced domestic abuse. You can also call us if you have experienced historical abuse (including childhood sexual abuse) even if you no longer have contact with the perpetrator.

Talking about what has happened to us in the past, and breaking the silence about what is going on now, cannot change what has happened to us, but can help us realise that we are never to blame for another's abusive behaviour. During counselling, we can process loss and bereavement, as well as abuse, and change how we feel. We can look at what kind of relationships we want and move towards changing our lives.
