When Emotional Abuse Survivors Share Their Stories, Healing Can Begin

Abusers maintain power and control over their victims by taking away their right to speak the truth. Women find that it is difficult to even articulate what has happened to them because the abuser has so subtly and sometimes threateningly taken that right away.

When victims are ready, they often find that sharing their stories, even a little bit at a time, can help them begin their journeys to healing. Many women start sharing their stories in Betrayal Trauma Recovery Group Sessions.
