As a woman, you have the right to dignity, autonomy, and security. Unfortunately, many disgruntled and chauvinistic men resort to abusing women to assert their dominance. Moreover, abuse is not limited to sexual or physical abuse. Verbal insults, and constant yelling and badgering are also considered abuse under the law. We have helped women overcome their problems in by providing one-on-one, compassionate, and nonjudgmental counseling, safety planning, and service referrals. Below, are just some of the issues we have dealt with that pertain to women’s counseling:
Assertiveness and Self-Esteem
If you are suffering from lack of assertiveness in your life and need help taking command and being proactive we can help you become a motivational dynamo. Furthermore, we have helped women enhance their self-esteem and self-worth in an empowering, yet pragmatic manner.
Co-dependent Relationships
A co-dependent relationship is a relationship that involves obsessive, altruistic, or narcissistic attachment that hinders one’s well-being and conventional way of life. We can help you regain your self-confidence, self-esteem, and independence or help you end a co-dependent relationship with a maladaptive and malevolent lover in a safe and calm manner.
Nutrition counseling
ABCpsych provides, one-one-one, personalized nutrition counseling that will identify weight and health issues and help you attain optimal health and lifestyle goals, without having to compromise choice and pleasure.
Sexual Abuse Treatment
If you have been a victim of sexual abuse and need help moving on and dealing with your feelings of betrayal and violation, then we can help by confronting and subsequently eliminating the trauma. We have an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist who is qualified to treat sexual trauma. ABCpsych will also provide legal referrals if you want the perpetrator to pay for his heinous crime.
Sexual Orientation
If you are a transgendered person, or someone who believes they may be gay or bi-sexual then we can help you fully realize who you are and/or help you cope without feelings of guilt or shame if applicable. ABCpsych can also help you confront your family and friends to reveal you true self.
Sexual Disorders and Dysfunction
ABCpsych has an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist who is qualified and competent to treat sexual disorders or sexual dysfunctions such as diminished desire, painful sex, premature ejaculation, inability to orgasm or erectile disorder. You will be treated with care, concern and dignity, as it is often difficult to discuss these problems with other untrained professionals.
