Women's Trauma Support Group

People who have traumatic experiences are often alienated from others, living a life of isolation and loneliness. Women who have experienced childhood abuse or repetitive and extensive domestic violence struggle with trust and relational skills. Group sessions can support the development of social relational skills and a sense of belonging. Women coping with intense thoughts and feelings may not understand why they experience these debilitating emotions, often feeling like failures or abnormal. Communicating with others, this Group can give context and meaning to these experiences. The weekly sessions will reinforce the perspective that many symptoms experienced by women are normal reactions to abnormal occurrences.
