At SSARC we understand the impacts and trauma that sibling sexual abuse can have on the whole family. Many parents’ feel anguish, despair, isolated and alone with nowhere to turn. The silence and stigma prevent many people from reaching out. A lot experience vicarious trauma which can have a detrimental impact on daily life. You may experience sleep deprivation, loss of appetite, nightmares, anxiety/panic attacks and the list goes on.

Know you are not alone. We provide safe, confidential, and non-judgemental counselling support for parent’s and carers to explore and process their feelings, work through their trauma and find effective strategies to manage in your time of need. ‘You cannot pour from an empty cup.’ We are here to support you so you are better equipped to support your family.

Our counselling is delivered online or via telephone by fully trained counsellors who work within the guidelines and ethics of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
We hope to receive funding to cover the cost of at least 6 consecutive therapy sessions, however in the interim there may be a small nominal fee. If you cannot afford this, it will not prevent you from accessing our services.​
