How Online Counselling can be helpful?
The abuse victim may find it challenging to recognize this type of abuse. It might be incredibly confusing when both parties have had or are presently having consensual sexual relations. Sexual abuse is compelling another person to engage in any sexual activity, including touching or physical contact. Sexual violence or abuse frequently coexists with other types of abuse, notably physical abuse. We provide complete assurance of confidentiality for online counselling. Our counselling sessions can aid in your self-esteem recovery by encouraging you to think back on previous violent relationships, incidents of domestic violence, and even family abuse.
