Women-only Group Therapy (for women over 18 years who have had their first mutual assessment meeting with the service) is facilitated by 2 of our experienced counsellors, and is held weekly for 2 hours. This can often be accessed quicker than waiting for personal one-to-one counselling, and often used while waiting for their own personal appointment. Some women choose to use the group following completion of their personal counselling therapy.

Women find they are among others who have been traumatised by abuse, and understand some of their emotions. They learn a lot from hearing how others have dealt with similar issues, and feel less isolated and more confident in their lives.

* "There's nothing like talking to someone who's been there".* "I feel understood by other group member's; accepted".* "I feel I'm not being judged or criticized". These are some of the things group members have written about their experience of attending Group Therapy.
