Testimonials

Being able to think more positively. Learned not to use negative/angry language where possible.

[The support helped], especially with my self-esteem and how I handle relationships (like not just romantic but all of them).

The counselling I received afterwards was amazing in helping me through life after the event.

They are doing a great job offering support to rape victims in the community, make them open up about how they feel, it is great they are available to talk to, because they are something you do not want to discuss with family or friends. Just because we all think they will be judgemental.

I have learnt so much about myself and feel that after everything I have been through I have come out a better version of myself.

The encouragement and support and having a safe space to openly talk and not be judged for it

[The support] has been so important in my life. My ISVA helped me get in contact with Women's Aid who helped me get a flat when I had nowhere or no-one. I am so very grateful. The support for legal advice and counselling has been a blessing.

I am much less angry and confused. I feel more in control of what is going on than I did.

[I have learned] that I can write about things other than depressing subjects, and there are people out there who will support and encourage you no matter how ‘damaged’ everyone else labels you, and you are not alone in what you’ve been through.

[The ISVA Navigator] was lovely and made me feel comfortable about speaking about what had happened and she was able to tell me what will happen next.

My daughters' had someone they could engage with (their ChISVA) and I was able to come to terms with what has happened to me and actual be able to see a future was possible.

I am sad to be leaving today's session as I have truly made a massive step thanks to [my counsellor].

I don’t where I’d be if it wasn't for this amazing support

[My counsellor] was very supportive and understanding.

The continuity of our sessions helped me cope on a daily basis. Couldn't have made it this far without this service.

[I valued] the understanding and compassionate way in which I have been treated. This has helped me grow and learn more about myself and how to cope with things I have learnt so much and honestly this has been amazing.

[I valued] having the support from a really nice counsellor. I felt safe and the help was amazing with coping strategies.

I'm not really sure if I can find the words to say how grateful I am for being given the recent counselling. It has changed my life immeasurably, and got me through some really difficult things and thoughts. I have no idea how I would have got through it without the support I have received. From challenging me on negative thoughts, helping me find hope and understanding to encouraging me to take time out from work when I really needed it, I can't imagine how anyone could have done a better job.

[It helped] being able to share my life story and understand how it's changed me in a nice environment, and having someone who listened and helped me understand.

There have been no intrusive questions. I don't have to mention details, which make me feel uncomfortable. Everyone is understanding and really friendly. I value that the support is free and in such a nice environment. Everyone believes you.

[My ISVA helped me with] understanding that how I felt was rational and my experiences were real.

It was great being able to talk to someone about things in my life.

[Having an ISVA] made me feel relieved of the pressure of reporting on my own, meaning I had more brain power/capacity to do other fulfilling things.

Every victim and every victim supporter needs to be given the opportunity to attend one of these groups. They are absolutely invaluable and an essential part of the therapeutic journey to recovery and surviving an assault.

You are wonderful, keep existing!

I talked to the police before having an ISVA. CRCC gave me phone support regarding what rights I have [and] what the interview would be like.

[Because of the counselling] I understand myself and my emotions better.

[I valued] being understood and believed. Not judged.

Amazing support.
