Victim Coaching
Child sexual abuse and domestic violence has many faces. If you are looking at this site, you probably either see one of those faces in the mirror, or across from you at the dinner table. And for some, the face is but a picture on a desk or a mantle. Such was the genesis of Victim Coaching.
The toll child sexual assault and domestic violence takes on society manifests pain in many ways. Some of the pain is physical, but for most the pain strikes at your soul. It lives long past the period of the abuse and follows us for years. It rears it’s ugly head in simple activities, relationships, and affects both victims and their families.
Having spent several years dealing with this issue, there is no roadmap for families dealing with this tragedy. Yes, there are therapists, crisis counselors, and victim advocates along the way. But most people find a lack of continuity between the services that are offered.
This site is about filling in some of those gaps.
What this site isn’t
This site is not a substitute for therapy, legal, or medical advice.
It is not a forum to share stories with other vicims
It is not a grant funded free service
A quick fix

What this site is
This is an interactive victim coaching system for victims and their families
A tool for developing a roadmap to minimize the future damage the abuse will have on your life
An expansion of traditional coaching to target the needs of sexual assault victims and their families
