Hello I am a professional who has previously managed trauma-informed services for individuals who have experienced sexual abuse and/or exploitation. My supportive approach is warm, tactful, non-directive, and non-judgemental. I work with children, women, men, and members of the LGBQTIA+ community; offering a safe space and evidence-based therapeutic support. This includes offering clinical evidence-based creative therapy, somatic practices to address embodied trauma, and talking therapies (narrative therapy, motivational interviewing, integrative therapy). Consultations are free, and instantly bookable via my website. I look forward to hearing from you, Jade.

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.

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.

Rakan Himadeh
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, ISP Candidate
Experiences of sexual abuse can leave deep imprints in the body and nervous system, often long after the event is over. Somatic Experiencing (SE) and Integral Somatic Psychology (ISP) offer a gentle, trauma-informed way to work with the effects of sexual trauma without having to retell or relive the story. SE helps rebuild a sense of safety in the body by slowly releasing stored survival responses such as freeze, shutdown, or hypervigilance. ISP complements this by supporting the safe processing of emotions like fear, shame, or confusion, helping you stay connected to yourself without becoming overwhelmed. Together, these approaches help restore boundaries, self-trust, and a sense of agency, allowing healing to unfold at a pace that honors your system
