Those who struggle with trauma stemming from past or current experiences in domestic disputes usually also struggle with finding a path towards recovery. They may feel that there is a financial burden or several restrictions that could hinder their push towards comfort and safety.

That’s where the Women’s Center Of Beaver County comes into play.

Jodie McGovern, a therapist at the Women’s Center, joined Matt Drzik on A.M. Beaver County to talk about the therapy services that are provided by the Center, which is financially covered under the “umbrella” provided by the government so that those seeking counseling may achieve it without suffering any financial setbacks they may be unable to match.

Just as important as the financial flexibility is the empathic flexibility of the therapists and counselors at the Women’s Center. McGovern spoke about how there are no restrictions on how much trauma one has experienced or how much time they need to recover, nor is there a limit on age or gender for those seeking a starting point towards returning to a safe and comfortable lifestyle.

McGovern also talked about the different types of one-on-one and group therapy provided by the Women’s Center, including evidence-based session types like EMDR and PCIT, to activity-based session types such as music therapy and equine therapy that can allow victims of abuse to regain physiological control of their bodies and their minds.

The Women’s Center Of Beaver County has a 24/7 hotline for contact at (724)-775-0131, and they have further information at their website.
