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.

Dabaco Doldissen
Counsellor/Therapist, GradDip Gestalt Therapy
Have you experienced sexual abuse? Having a supportive, confidential and trusted space to open up about this painful (and sometimes confusing) experience is fundamental to being able to process and move on from the abuse. Whether it's historical or something that happened recently, I support my clients to make sense of their experience and story so they can process what happened in a healthy way. Book a free 15 minute phone consult via my website to discuss more.
