Domestic Violence

50.00 £

50 mins

Domestic Violence can involve physical, emotional and/or sexual abuse. This abuse can affect anyone, regardless of age, gender or social background. I will help you take a deeper look into domestic abuse, including how to recognise the signs, deciding when and how to leave and how to move on. We will look at some of the barriers preventing you from leaving – shame, guilt, fear, denial and fear of being alone. These are all common factors that, once understood, help you realise you don’t have to live like that anymore. Same sex and domestic abuse amongst men can often go under the radar. The situation is difficult to talk about for both men and women, however men may face the additional stigma of not wanting to appear as a ‘victim’ or worry that no one will believe them. Here you will find a safe space to explore and talk through these feelings and break free from the cycle of abuse.
