What we do...
Healing for Survivors offers personalized counseling for individuals and couples in addition to the groups below:
Mens Group is a weekly, two hour group offering a regular and consistent "safe place" for survivors to come and share their pain and struggles, receive encouragement, and gain the tools necessary to make the life-changing decisions that will take them farther down the path of healing. This is a three month commitment.
Womens Group is a weekly, two hour group offering a regular and consistent "safe place" for survivors to come and share their pain and struggles, receive encouragement, and gain the tools necessary to make the life-changing decisions that will take them farther down the path of healing. This is a three month commitment.
Couples Group is a bi-weekly support group focusing on issues between partners where one or both, are survivors. During the course of this group, couples will learn what love "looks like," how to better understand themselves, the art of listening, and how the past can destroy the present. Couples will develop effective tools to enhance communication, resolve conflict, create win-win situations, and overcome barriers to intimacy.
Weekend Workshops
At various times during the year, we offer "hands on" weekend workshops to help focus healing and foster education and growth.
Understanding Your Core Beliefs- this is a single day workshop given in a classroom setting. "Core Beliefs" are values, views, attitudes and beliefs that we have developed over the course of our lives (usually in childhood) that help shape who we are today. They shape our view of life, our approach to relationships,k how we handle certain aspects of our lives. While some are positive, some are also negative, and they impact every facet of our adult lives. If you are a survivor of childhood abuse, many times the core beliefs you carry into adulthood that were created to protect you in childhood are now the very ones that are holding you back from experiencing a full and abundant life. Many times we are unaware of what our core beliefs are and how we came to accept them. This one-day workshop is intended to provide participants an opportunity to discover what their core beliefs are and how they came to develop them.
Please note this is a prerequisite for attending the 3 day workshop.
Three Day Weekend Workshop
This three day intensive healing workshop is designed to provide a context for survivors to honestly look at and reflect upon their past and how it is affecting their lives in the present. Participants come together with others who share similar experiences and acknowledge their pain in a safe, authentic, supportive and non-judgemental atmosphere. Survivors learn how to identify the core beliefs that were formed in early childhood and how they continue to control our present day lives and choices. Through the weekend workshop, participants learn the tools to create the life that is not dictated by their past, but upon the future that they want and deserve!
Advanced Workshop
This workshop is designed for those who have attended a 3 day workshop. They now understand the format and group process we use and are ready to work with new issues or to deeper explore and work through issues already identified. This workshop is usually scheduled for a Friday evening and all day Saturday.
