Nicole Rolls
Counsellor/Therapist, PG Dip, MA, BACP Accred, EMDR Accred, 20 years experience as a Therapist
Sexual abuse cannot be tolerated and would have to be reported.
For victims of sexual abuse, we can work with EMDR to overcome flash back, trauma, negative self beliefs, lessen emotional disturbance and re-connect with a sense of Self worth.

Sexual Abuse
Dr Paul Garden
Psychologist, Doctorate in Psychology, DPsych, MSc with Distinction, BSc First Class Honours.
The trauma around having been sexually abused is often very subtle and insidious, felt in the background almost as if it belongs elsewhere. Its impact on your life can be far reaching. I have a particular interest in supporting people to come to terms with this impact, and to rebuild and move on with their lives.

Dr Ian Anderson
Psychologist, Consultant Clinical Psychologist (HCPC registered), PhD, MSc, MSc, MSc, MA (Econ), BA (Econ) Hons
Sexual abuse is a specific form of trauma. It often threatens not only our ability to maintain control over our lives, but our sense of self. The result of this is that the trauma radiates into every aspect of our lives. The goal of therapy is to understand the damage and to regain control. Reflexively, regaining control over our lives is a way of rebuilding our sense of self.

Shareen Birges
Registered Social Worker, BASS, GDYMH, MSW
I have extensive experience working with people who have suffered sexual abusr/assault, & specialise in childhood sexual abuse. My person centered, strengths based & trauma informed practice helps me to create a safe & comfortable therapeutic environment & build a trusting relationship with individuals. This creates a healing environment & supports people to find a way to live with their trauma experiences. I often explain this work through the analogy of wound healing. Before one begins to work on past trauma, the memories are like an open wound. They are painful & have not healed. Through the process of counselling (I've found talking & narrative therapy to be very helpful for clients around these issues) the wound heals & becomes a scar. Whilst you can never remove it, the scar no longer hurts & is just a memory of the incident(s), a memory that no longer has the capacity to hurt.
