Sexual Abuse
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.

Sexual Abuse
Grounded Space Counselling
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Graduate Diploma Trauma Informed Processwork Psychotherapy (Process Oriented Psychology), Diploma Counselling, Somatic Experiencing Cert II/III
Sexual abuse is a traumatic experience and can have profound and long-lasting effects, including physical, emotional, and psychological harm. I provide a supportive and compassionate environment where safety and no judgment is paramount. I help to facilitate healing through a range of modalities that go beyond traditional talk therapy that can access deeper and underlaying trigger responses to the trauma that often don't make sense or seem uncontrollable.

Christina Taylor Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Masters in Counselling, BA Psychology, BA Hons Literature Grad Diploma Education
As an abuse survivor I can relate to all who I have the privilege to meet and work with ,as we address the trauma involved with sexual abuse.
It can take many years for the abuse to be able to be addressed - or it may have happened recently. I offer a safe space to look at the impact these events have had and to work through them to achieve a greater sexual and emotional connection with current or future partners - or merely to achieve a greater level of inner peace.

Sexual Abuse
Sebastian Kitchen
Registered Psychotherapist, PACFA Registered Member 32932
If you have experienced sexual abuse, it is important to know that you are not broken, wrong, tainted, unworthy. Sexual abuse, especially early in life or within families can have far reaching consequences in how we develop, see ourselves and show up in the world. Therapy can help you understand how your experiences have shaped you, and how you can respond with new understandings, a new perception of yourself and new ways of being.
In working with sexual abuse, I use a tri-phasic trauma treatment model. The first phase (20 sessions) is purely around emotional stabilisation, safety, and development of internal and external resources. It is only after that where we might start to do any active work addressing the sexual abuse, and this is done in a very specific way so that the trauma in not relived without being processed and integrated.
