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?
Perhaps Laurel House's new support group in the Collegeville, PA area can help.
The group begins this Tuesday evening, September 8 at 7 p.m. It is designed 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, and connect with other women. The group's facilitator is a marriage and family therapist.
We anticipate being able to offer childcare within the next week or so, but unfortunately we're not able to offer it for this first session.
Additional support groups meet on Monday evenings in both the Norristown and North Wales, PA areas. 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, email mdavis@laurel-house.org for more information.
