Stopping the Violence Program - Westcoast Community Resources Society

Stopping the Violence Women’s Counselling

The Stopping the Violence (STV) Counselling Program offers counselling and support for self-identified women and mature girls who have experienced violence or abuse in relationships, sexual assault or childhood abuse. Wellness and psycho-educational groups are also offered as part of the program.

The STV Counsellor works with survivors of sexual assault, partner abuse, family violence, date rape, historic child abuse, stalking and sexual harassment.

STV Counselling Outcomes

Clients are supported in reclaiming a sense of self and personal rights, which includes the right to make decisions, manage money and manage children.

Clients are also supported in gaining perspective about overwhelming and confusing experiences and making the best personal decisions through exploring beliefs, feelings and the present situation.

The Stopping the Violence Counsellor offers an online guided meditation session, every Wednesday morning from 7:30-8:00am.

Territory Acknowledgement

We acknowledge that we work on the land that is colonially known as Ucluelet and Tofino, but is the traditional territory of the Ahousaht, Hesquiaht, Tla-o-qui-aht, Toquaht and Yuułuʔiłʔath peoples.

We stand in solidarity with these nations and recognize the need for change in the systems that continue to oppress indigenous people in our community and across the country. We respectfully acknowledge the occupation of stolen land and stand behind the efforts and resiliency of all indigenous people.
