Healing after domestic or sexual violence doesn\u2019t follow a straight line. There\u2019s no timeline, no checklist, and no \u201cright\u201d way to process trauma. That\u2019s why Sollera\u2019s counseling services are built around one guiding principle: victim-survivors get to move at their own pace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sollera offers free, confidential counseling for victim-survivors, led by trained professionals who understand the complex impact of trauma. Counseling sessions create a space where victim-survivors can talk openly, or sit quietly, or focus on coping tools\u2014whatever feels most supportive in that moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Trauma can show up in many ways: anxiety, trouble sleeping, difficulty trusting others, anger, numbness, or feeling disconnected from your own body. Sollera counselors help survivors make sense of these responses, not as weaknesses, but as understandable reactions to harm. Healing begins when people feel safe enough to tell their story\u2014or to know they don\u2019t have to yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Counseling at Sollera isn\u2019t about \u201cfixing\u201d someone. It\u2019s about helping victim-survivors reconnect with themselves, rebuild a sense of safety, and develop tools that support long-term well-being. For some, that means short-term support. For others, it\u2019s a longer journey. Both are valid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Most importantly, counseling services are provided without cost and without judgment. Victim-survivors don\u2019t need to have reported to law enforcement or meet any specific criteria. If someone has experienced harm, they deserve care\u2014and that belief is at the heart of Sollera\u2019s counseling program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In 2025, Sollera\u2019s counselors served 631 adults and children, providing more than 4700 counseling sessions.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
