COUNSELING SERVICES:

Counseling can be an extremely powerful recovery tool. RAAP's Counseling Services program provides individual and group counseling for rape and incest survivors. The first step is to meet with a counselor one-to-one. During this one-hour intake meeting, the client and counselor assess if individual and/or group counseling is the next appropriate step for the client, as well as if any other resources are needed.

Research has shown that group counseling is one of the most effective ways to work through issues surrounding sexual assault and sexual abuse. Specialized groups offered by RAAP include:

  • 16-week adult women's rape survivor group

  • 24-week adult women's childhood sexual abuse (incest) survivor group

  • Teen group for adolescent females

  • African American women's group

  • Monolingual Spanish-speaking women's group

  • English-speaking Latina group

RAAP also provides a one day workshop, designed to support friends and family of rape and incest survivors. This 8 hour "Someone I Love" workshop is typically held on a Saturday, every other month.
