Abuse - Emotional, Physical, Sexual

The area of abuse counselling includes both physical, emotional and sexual abuse therapy effectively conducted in a safe and caring environment. While not visible on the outside, emotional abuse is also a form of assault which, if left untreated, can leave lifelong emotional scars. Abusers often use intimidation to create guilt and fear to make the victim feel ashamed and isolated from other people.
 
● The symptoms of physical abuse are usually the easiest to see, with victims making excuses for scars and bruises.
● Children who are sexually abused will often have an age-inappropriate knowledge of sexuality and may even suffer from sexualy transmitted diseases, or pregnancy.
● Emotional abuse often goes hand-in-hand with either sexual, and or physical abuse. The victim will usually display a poor self-esteem, anxiety, withdrawal from social interactions, lack of trust, pessimism, and suicide attempts, to name but a few.
 
Abuse is often carried through generations, causing victims to become abusers, too. However, abuse can be stopped.

Pain Management, Bio-Energetics

Pain Management therapy addresses the psychological issues that are part of  chronic pain. Most people don't realize just how common chronic pain and how much it is influenced by the context of our lives. Once medical conditions have been ruled out, pain management therapy can address the influences of unexpressed anger, grief, emotional overwhelm, anxiety, or depression.

Unexpressed emotions, desires or needs often affect pain levels.

Pain management psychotherapy can help a client to confront the pent-up emotions to provide short term and long term relief. In addition to the above physiotherapy and medication adjustments are typically really important as well - particularly when the pain is not malignant.

Bio-Energetics aims to resolve emotional issues and helps clients to reach their potential and to enjoy a pleasure-filled life. A form of psychodynamic psychotherapy, bio-energetics focusses on the mind-body connection and therapists consider the client's structure, breathing and movement patterns in therapy.

Psychotherapists who practice bioenergetics are very aware of the psychological defences that also appear in the client's body. The body's unique structural patterns in which the muscles inhibit self-expression. Bioenergetics psychotherapists believe that each physical expression has meaning.

During a bio-energetics session, the psychotherapist will introduce the client to exercises and other physical expressions that can help the client explore the freedom of releasing those patterns and to recover some of the repressed feelings inside of them. The result is that the client will become more free and spontaneous and enjoy life feeling safer and healthier with a strong connection to his or her inner self.
