New Support Groups for Survivors of Abuse

Has your partner or ex-partner ever acted jealous ... tried to keep you away from family and friends ... hit or hurt you ... put you down or called you names?

Laurel House can help.

Support groups are now being offered for women who are currently experiencing or have experienced this type of abuse and want to have their voices heard and understood ... learn about the dynamics of abuse ... build trusting relationships ... connect with other women.

Support groups meet on Monday evenings in both the Norristown and North Wales, PA areas. A new support group will meet, beginning in September, on Tuesday evenings in Collegeville, PA.

Laurel House also offers individual domestic violence counseling for both men and women who have been victimized by their partners. Counselors are master's level clinical social work and counseling psychology interns, supervised by a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). Laurel House's counseling services and support groups are confidential and free of charge.

For more information, call 610-277-1860, ext. 118 for times and location details. Or, just leave a comment on this post and we'll see that it gets to our support group coordinator right away.
