DOMESTIC ABUSE AND VIOLENCE SUPPORT SERVICES
We offer a specialist counselling and support service for people of all genders experiencing domestic abuse or violence, or who are still experiencing the effects of it. This includes elder abuse, and child-to-parent abuse. The safety of you and any dependents will be regarded as most important.
You can access the service while you are living with the person who is abusive or violent or living separately. In the case of abuse from a male partner, the partner does not need to be on our men's programme for you to use the service. The service is provided by a a specialist counsellor who can offer safety planning, practical suggestions, counselling and sign-posting to other useful services. The counsellor will not judge you or make choices for you.
Our aim is to help you live safely and free from fear and to recover from the effects of the abuse or violence you have faced. To do this we will suggest measures you can take to keep you and your family physically and emotionally safe.
