To help manage the impacts of sexual violence and abuse, additional support is available to clients who are waiting to start counselling.
Pre-therapy workshops
Taking the step to ask for support is difficult, and waiting for counselling to start can feel like a state of limbo for many people while processing their experiences and hopes for the future.
CRASAC’s pre-therapy workshops are designed to provide extra support while you wait and are tailored to suit the needs and availability of our clients.
Designed to be empowering, these workshops aim to help you understand the impact of what has happened to you on your day-to-day life and will provide support for managing those impacts.
You can choose to attend as many or as few sessions as you need, and it’s an ideal way of seeing the centre and therapy rooms before starting counselling.
The workshops are delivered in groups and will cover areas such as:
- Boundaries
- Self-care
- Understanding your body
- Low mood
- Trauma and the brain
- Anxiety and panic
- Flashbacks
- Sleep and nightmares
“I felt so supported during the workshops. The tempo of the sessions was perfect and included enough information and support without feeling overwhelmed. I can’t recommend them highly enough.”
