Welcome
to the Counseling Office
AbuseConsultants.com
is an online treatment resource specializing
in work with sexual abuse, severe trauma,
and dissociative disorders. Other issues such
as depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety,
panic, self injury, addictions, and eating
disorders are also addressed, primarily with
the frame work as they occur in conjunction
with trauma issues. We use a variety of treatment
approaches, maintain an emphasis on safety
and system communication, and encourage as
much creative expression as possible throughout
the healing process.
This
site is for trauma survivors of all ages --
adults, teenagers, or children. Our clinical
director has worked specifically in the field
of trauma and recovery for nearly twenty years,
and has developed a genuine understanding
of the trauma issues. Besides clinical
consultations, AbuseConsultants.com has
other creative ideas to provide healing and
comfort for the painful wounds caused by abuse.
Please
remember that all clinical work with teenagers
or children must first be arranged with the
custodial parent and AbuseConsultants.com.
This
site is also here to offer support and understanding
for the loved ones of trauma survivors. Living
with trauma and the aftereffects of trauma
are extremely difficult on everyone, including
the parent that was not aware of the abuse,
the parent that struggled to stop the abuse,
and the current day spouse or partner of a
trauma survivor. Almost all significant support
people have had many difficult years, and
many of these support folks may suffer from
secondary post-traumatic stress disorder themselves. |
