Sexual Abuse Counselling in Newark
You may be feeling stuck, anxious, or depressed, in pain or discomfort, and this can be your mind and body's way of signalling that something needs attention. You may not know what it is, but you know something doesn't feel right. I offer a safe, compassionate space to deepen your understanding of your discomfort, explore how it may have developed and what keeps it going, noticing how the past may be impacting your present. As insight grows, you begin to make sense of your experiences and recognise patterns. When we begin to use what we've learned, this can open up new possibilities and perspectives and support meaningful change.

I work with a wide range of issues. My role as a psychotherapist is to listen to you with sensitivity and empathy and without judgement or rushing you. In this way, we can both try to make sense of what has happened up to this point in time. You may be feeling depressed, anxious, stressed or heartbroken because of it. These are natural emotional responses to what has gone on - however if this has been going for a while, or you don't have someone to talk to, I could be able to help.

I am an integrative counsellor working with young people (11+) and adults across the UK, both online and in person in Tuxford.

I also have experience of working with adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse and with people who are experiencing suicidal thoughts.
Hello, welcome to my counselling practice. Maybe this is your first time contacting a counsellor, or maybe you have had therapy before. Maybe you had a good experience, or maybe you and your therapist did not quite fit. It is a big step, starting therapy, and you may be feeling anxious about baring your soul to someone you never met. Or maybe it's easier to talk to a stranger than offload your worries to a partner or friends. Whatever brings you here, I will offer you the space and time you need to gently ease in, try out a free initial 30 minute session, have a pause-and-review session after a few weeks. We can take it from there.

For more than 25 years I’ve supported adults through tough times, first in the NHS and now in private practice. Many people come to me because they’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed, “on edge,” low in mood, burnt out, or simply not like themselves. Others are dealing with panic attacks, overthinking, self‑esteem worries, relationship stress, or the impact of trauma and PTSD. Whatever you’re facing, therapy can help you feel calmer, clearer and more in control again.

There are times in life where we all need to talk through something that just feels too complex to share with family or friends. Whether you're a people-pleaser, an overthinker, living with social anxiety or constant tension, therapy provides you with a valuable investment in time for yourself. Together, we can develop a deeper understanding of what makes you you, identify patterns that no longer serve you, and help you to improve and enrich your life. As someone with lived experience of ADHD, I also bring a personal understanding of the challenges and strengths that can come with being neurodivergent.

You’ve always been the capable one. High functioning, self-aware, often the person others turn to for advice. You understand yourself pretty well, but knowing why you feel this way doesn’t always stop the same patterns repeating. You might overthink relationships, struggle to trust or fully let people in, become attached to people who can’t quite meet your needs, or feel exhausted from always being the strong one. I work with women experiencing anxiety, overwhelm, attachment and relationship difficulties, trauma, motherhood and big life transitions.

Sexual Abuse Counsellors
How do therapists treat sexual abuse?
A good therapist will be nonjudgmental and possibly demonstrate active listening, repeating back what the client says to show that they have understood. These skills allow people to feel comfortable discussing their traumatic experiences openly. Some important treatment goals are to restore a sense of safety and to rebuild confidence. In addition to working one-on-one with the patient, a therapist might bring in supportive family members to assist the client.
Do you have to talk extensively about sexual abuse in therapy?
Survivors frequently find it difficult to describe what happened to them out loud. They can even still be in a state of denial if the sexual abuse occurred recently. It is important for survivors to acknowledge that what happened isn’t their fault and to challenge and reappraise any unhealthy feelings or thoughts as they arise. Art therapy and play therapy are useful non-verbal means of communication for some survivors.
How long does treatment for sexual abuse take?
Recovery from sexual abuse can be a long and difficult process. Some survivors are able to move on naturally on their own, given time, while others require the guidance of a trained therapist. Therapy needs vary and can range from a few sessions to months or even years. Healing from sexual abuse takes time, and everyone’s journey will look a little different.
Can trauma symptoms caused by sexual abuse come back after treatment?
As occurs in many cases of trauma, survivors of sexual abuse may experience PTSD-like symptoms long after the abuse has ceased or after an initial round of treatment has occurred. In such a case, there is evidence that prolonged exposure therapy is a useful treatment for survivors, and may be more efficacious than supportive counseling alone. While triggers may continue to cause distress, the idea is that, with time and repeated exposure, their power will fade, allowing survivors to move on with their lives.
