H.E.a.R.T. - A Women's Betrayal Trauma Group
It is a truth we cannot escape; Relationships are the source of our deepest pain and our greatest pleasure. When betrayal happens in the context of an intimate partnership, the trauma, pain, and subsequent recovery is uniquely complex.
Sexual behaviour which breaks promises of faithfulness and exclusivity deals a devastating blow to your self-image, and self-worth. Additionally, the personal violation and unwitting exposure to chronic deception adds up to a moral injury that cripples your ability and opportunity to live wholeheartedly.
​
Throughout the 8 weeks this program runs, you will:
-
have the opportunity to share your story and hear others
-
begin healing by working through your feelings and thoughts about what has happened
-
learn why people do what they do, and how to create boundaries to protect yourself
-
create and maintain healthy relationships with other women who understand​
H.E.a.R.T. is facilitated by Susannah-Joy (SJ) Schuilenberg, who is a Certified Trauma Recovery Coach. SJ expertly guides the women through her original workbook, while creating a shared, safe space to heal. Throughout the program, women will create relationships with other women who understand the reality of relational trauma. H.E.a.R.T. is a place where we can learn to set and hold boundaries, to trust again, and find a way forward.
