“When I look in the mirror, I can now really see myself again – it has taken more than 15 years to do this. Survive’s EMDR therapy changed my life”.  

Jessica*, a female survivor of domestic violence including rape, felt numb and dehumanised, avoided relationships, was withdrawn and a workaholic. After counselling, trauma therapy and EMDR psychotherapy with Survive, she developed self-worth, rediscovered her old life, and was able to form new, healthy relationships. She put the trauma behind her, got her life back and reconnected with her friends and family.

In the words of her mum, “We have our daughter back, and more importantly you gave Jess her life back”.
