This 10 week course is aimed at helping you understand your own behaviours, thoughts and feelings and offers ways to manage the effects in your life.
This programme is for men who have experienced childhood trauma and who wish to pursue recovery and healing. In this program, we focus on issues stemming from:
Sexual abuse, and/or
Physical abuse, and/or
Emotional abuse , and/or neglect
By being here, you are demonstrating both courage and strength. Not only will you benefit from this journey, but so will your family and loved ones.
Please note you will be in good hands. This long-term program, the first of its kind in New Zealand, developed in Canada at Men & Healing, Ottawa, is based on the latest understanding of trauma and recovery. Our staff are highly trained therapists who are knowledgeable on issues that affect men and their families.
The model of treatment has been evaluated as “clinically effective” through two evidence based research studies — the only such studies in the world!
Recovery from childhood trauma is a long, hard road and the work you will encounter is challenging. Courage, determination and self-compassion are required. However, with the support of the group and your facilitators, we believe healing is possible.
In your time with us, speak up, ask questions, and apply these learnings to your life. It is your time to be “selfish” — and make the program work for you. We honour your trust in working with us and welcome your feedback.
Thanks to Men & Healing, Ottawa, Canada, for sharing their programme with us.
