Abuse Therapy
Abuse is any action that violates your rights as a person. It can take many forms and happen in different situations, with the abuser being anyone from a stranger to a family member, colleague, or someone you trust.
Abuse can take many forms, including:
- Physical
- Emotional and Psychological
- Sexual
- Financial
- Verbal
- Bullying
- Neglect
- Discrimination
- Institutional or Organisational
Therapy can play a crucial role in your healing journey by helping you process and understand your feelings surrounding both recent and past abuse. It provides a confidential and supportive environment where you can openly explore the emotional and psychological impact the abuse has had on your life. Through therapy, you can gain a deeper understanding of how the abuse has shaped your thoughts, behaviours, and relationships.
You may find it helpful to examine feelings like anxiety, low self-esteem, or difficulty trusting others, which are common responses to abuse. Therapy also helps you uncover the underlying effects of trauma, such as shame, guilt, or fear, and work through these emotions at your own pace. By addressing these feelings, therapy can empower you to rebuild your sense of self-worth, regain control of your life, and develop healthier coping mechanisms for the future.
