While referrals to our Counselling and Therapy services are currently closed, our Support Team are now taking new referrals. Whilst the Support Team cannot offer specific counselling or trauma therapy, they CAN:

• Focus on the ‘here and now’, rather than the past and try to keep conversations focused this way
• Provide a safe place for you to talk about how you are coping and feeling
• Listen to you and support you emotionally
  Help you understand your options for reporting, not reporting, or reporting anonymously
• Help you make sense of your experience by helping you understand the brain and body’s response to sexualised trauma and the consequences of sexualised trauma
• Explore strategies to help you cope with what you are experiencing
• Signpost you to local or national agencies and help you find other resources
  Discuss myths and facts around sexual violence
• Discuss safety and crisis planning
• Provide reading suggestions for self-help resources.
