Betrayal Trauma Counselling
Walking with you on your healing journey.
Betrayal trauma occurs when the people or institutions on which a person depends for survival significantly violate that person's trust or well-being.
Childhood physical, emotional, or sexual abuse perpetrated by a caregiver are examples of betrayal trauma.
Betrayal trauma also exists for adults who have experienced betrayal in the form of infidelity, especially when a partner has porn and/or sex addiction.
Similarities exist between betrayal trauma and fear-based trauma with the physiological (body) responses.
There are two main differences in betrayal trauma.
In betrayal trauma, the very person one would go to for protection, safety, and love is the perpetrator of the trauma. Secondly, recidivism or repetition is very high in that the betrayal can repeatedly occur from the same perpetrator and other people within the survivor's circle
Qualified Clinical Counselling Supervision
Supervising Registered Professional Counsellors & Master Practitioners in Clinical Counselling.
As a Qualified Clinical Counselling Supervisor, I will challenge you, respect you, and guide you.
A mentor is someone who is more experienced, has a positive mindset, is available, provides constructive feedback, cheers for your success and is supportive. I must govern by the ethical requirements of my professional associations, as I am a gatekeeper of the counselling profession.
Mentorship is one that is similar to the alliance that we have with our own clients. The mentorship is developing that alliance, rather than assuming a hierarchy.
Supervisees are continuing to develop their core skills. As a supervisor, when observing areas of potential growth, it is my responsibility to train and demonstrate, rather than to point out what is wrong.
As human beings, we continue to grow and evolve, including our competencies and skills. As a supervisor, it is my responsibility to assist my supervisees to grow with the acknowledgement that they are developing into the counsellor they want to be.
