Adult Survivors of Sexual Assault

This group is for women who have been assaulted as adults or older teens. It is an informal, self-help model that recognizes the wounding experience and honors the need, and the right, to heal and grow.

A wide range of survivor experiences may include:

• Little or no memory of the abuse
• Full memory of the abuse
• Told no one about the abuse
• Told someone and received a negative response
• Silence, secrecy, and/or isolation have grown heavier over the years

The counseling process can help you to shift your viewpoint and dispel some of the negative messages. Counseling will provide:

• A safe and secure environment to express feelings
• A way to discover personal boundaries and set limits
• Validation and affirmation of feelings

All services are confidential and free of charge.
