Counsellor/Therapist, PG Diploma Person-Centred Psychotherapy. EMDR Accredited
Sexual and domestic violence leave impacts that extend far beyond the immediate physical harm. These experiences can fundamentally alter how you see yourself, others, and the world around you—and those effects are valid regardless of how long ago the violence occurred or what form it took.
Emotional and Psychological Effects
You might experience intense emotions like fear, shame, guilt, or anger—sometimes all at once. Many survivors struggle with anxiety, depression, or feeling emotionally numb. You may find yourself hypervigilant, constantly scanning for danger, or experiencing flashbacks and intrusive memories that make it feel like the trauma is happening again. Sleep disturbances, nightmares, and difficulty concentrating are common. Some survivors describe feeling disconnected from their bodies or experiencing moments where they don’t feel fully present.
Impact on Identity and Relationships
Violence, especially from someone you trusted, can shake your sense of who you are and your ability to trust your own judgment. You might struggle with self-blame, even though the violence was never your fault. Intimacy—both physical and emotional—can become complicated or frightening. You may find yourself withdrawing from relationships, or alternately, seeking connection in ways that don’t feel healthy. Setting boundaries might feel impossible, or you might build walls so high that no one can reach you.
Physical Effects
Trauma lives in the body. You might experience chronic pain, headaches, digestive issues, or other physical symptoms that doctors struggle to explain. Your body’s stress response system may be on constant alert, leading to exhaustion, tension, or feeling unsafe in your own skin.

In situations where someone is recovering from DV, there may need to be toggling between assessing first things first proactive steps to get out of or mitigate a dangerous situation. From there, the approach may be building practice with polyvagal and other stabilizing nervous system support. Then when there is more spaciousness deeper trauma work may be helpful. We've weaved with clients between these different needs organically, as the process is not always linear. We also support folks seeking ***safe*** peer group support as a helpful adjunct once they and their dependents, if any, are out of immediate danger.

Counsellor/Therapist, PG Dip, MA, BACP Accred, EMDR Accred, 20 years experience as a Therapist
Domestic abuse and Violence are not acceptable. Such episode usually need to be reported and investigated and there will need to be some healing for the victims and perpetrators. The victims will need to work through their trauma and the perpetrators will need to lean better ways of dealing with their unbearable emotions and aggression. Addiction issues will need to be addressed through the appropriate organisations that can support the Addict.
