Counselling

We provide counselling to clients who have been sexually abused/assaulted and live in the Avon and Somerset area.

Counsellors will not expect clients to discuss their sexual assault experience during sessions unless they choose to. Instead, our counsellors will work with clients to develop healthy ways of coping with distress, make sense of what happened to them and help them to understand the psychological symptoms they may be experiencing and work towards reducing these symptoms.

An assessment will be made with the client to ensure SARC counselling is the most appropriate service for them at that time.
