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.

Lisa Sanfilippo
Therapist, MA, MSc, UKCP, MBACP
We can restore healthy relationships and intimacy- even if we have experienced abuse in the past. Feeling fearful, confused, ashamed, overly-sexualised or afraid of intimacy are important ways our nervous system may be dealing with something really difficult to process. And these protective patterns can shift. Sexual abuse or assault are, sadly, far more common than you'd think. Working with sexual abuse means working gently and delicately at your pace, often not even needing to re-hash the content of past events, but understanding how the after-effects have created your protective responses. We start with restoring a feeling of safety and integrity so that you can move at your own pace. I take a gentle, measured approach, helping you to heal somatically, mentally, emotionally and even spiritually. My approach is informed by somatic experiencing and Polyvagal approaches, which work with our bodies and nervous systems.

Dr Jacob Ellwood
Psychologist, PsychD, Cpsychol
The impact of sexual abuse can be devastating, but your experience need not define you or dictate your actions. I have extensive experience of working with clients of all gender identities who have experienced sexual abuse. I use techniques to combat internalised shame, and to help them to feel safe.

Ulrike Nau-Debor
Psychologist, CPsychol, AFBPsS, HCPC registered
Experiencing sexual abuse can be a profoundly traumatic experience that can lead to PTSD, shame, guilt, rage, a disconnect from our bodies, and a loss of a sense of safety in the world and with other people. It can change how we feel about ourselves, making it terrifying to share what happened due to shame and the fear of not being believed or that the experience might not be seen as severe enough to count as trauma. We may feel complicit in what happened or have mixed feelings about it, which can also make it more challenging to talk about. Many of us carry shame about 'letting it happen,' not realizing that the freeze response is the most common reaction.
My commitment to you is to create a safe space where you can heal from the trauma and reclaim your life, sexuality, and vibrancy. I know it can feel impossible to heal, but I have seen that it is possible. It may take time and effort to deal with the trauma, but it is worth it.

Georgie Gee
Registered Psychotherapist, Masters in Child and Adolescent Psychotherapy
In my work with young people who have suffered abuse I establish a safe confidential space that allows them to feel supported and validated. I also offer trauma informed care that looks at the symptoms of trauma and how that impact the memory and the nervous system.
