You may be wondering:

​​​

  • Why do I still feel affected when it happened a long time ago?

  • Do other women feel the same way I do?

  • Why do I keep blaming myself even though I know it wasn’t my fault?

  • Is it common to minimise or doubt my own experience?

  • How do I stop replaying “what I should have done”?

  • Why do I feel numb, detached, or “not in my body”?

  • Is it normal to struggle with intimacy or physical closeness?

  • Why do certain sensations, touches, or situations feel overwhelming?

  • Am I the only one who feels this way?

Pebbles

We use a trauma-informed, integrative therapeutic approach that prioritises safety, choice, and empowerment. The group combines psychoeducation about trauma and its effects on the body, brain, and relationships with supportive, skills-based and relational practices drawn from multiple modalities.
