Therapeutic Services

The women of Sheffield place have frequently suffered numerous traumas in their lives including childhood abuse, rape, battering and other forms of interpersonal violence. Therapy services are part of a solution to help our women recover from the impact of trauma in their lives. Through strength-based individual therapy and group therapy women increase their sense of self and are empowered to make new choices in their lives. Some women may have other mental health issues such as depressive and anxiety disorders and they have the opportunity to develop skills to decrease problems and symptoms through therapy.

An important component in therapeutic services is also treatment of substance abuse and frequently a dual diagnosis disorder exists along with the addiction. Our individual and group treatment of addictions is holistic and addresses the dimensions of physical emotional, spiritual, environmental and societal. We have a gender responsive approach realizing that issues are different and unique for women, with a strength-based focus.
