From safety planning to emotional recovery, my goal is to support you in reclaiming your sense of self, strength, and hope.

Key Components of the 7 week Women Together group:
Understanding the Dynamics of Power and Control and Coercive Control– Recognizing coercive control, manipulation, and patterns of abuse (e.g., physical, emotional, financial, spiritual abuse).
Validation and Empowerment – Survivors may experience self-blame or minimization; validating their experiences fosters empowerment.
Safety - both physical and emotional.
Addressing Complex Issues – Barriers to leaving, attachment, cycles.
Navigating Guilt, Shame, and Self-Worth – Many survivors struggle with shame due to societal stigma or gaslighting by the abuser.
I created TACT in 2015 because I believe, we can turn a corner as we work together. I will sit with you and your story.
I can offer general counselling along with trauma informed counselling.
