Shared Healing: Women Only Group Therapy
Every year, countless women across the globe, regardless of their age, ethnicity, and cultural backgrounds, fall victim to domestic violence. Domestic violence is a dark reality that leaves its survivors mentally scarred and emotionally exhausted. It’s a unique form of torment that instills a sense of fear, helplessness, and isolation, often making women feel like they are alone in their struggle. As a survivor, you may face difficulty navigating daily life, building relationships, or merely existing without the shadow of past trauma haunting you.
Domestic Violence On Women - The Impact
The burden of domestic violence is heavy – a weight that leaves a profound imprint on your mental health and wellbeing. Memories and trauma may creep into your everyday life, disrupting your peace, clouding your thoughts, and leaving you feeling trapped in a cycle of anxiety, guilt, and fear. It’s like a tempest in your mind, relentless and overwhelming, making it hard to see a way out.
Navigating Trauma And Building Resilience
Society’s lack of understanding may make matters worse. Misconceptions about domestic violence often mean the emotional anguish you’re going through remains unseen and unacknowledged, leaving you feeling unheard and invalidated. You may even feel compelled to hide your struggle, further reinforcing the isolation and the belief that you are alone in this.
At Rapid Action Health, we understand. You are never alone.
