Abuse can trigger strong and harmful reactions that are part of the body’s natural response to violence or abuse. Without proper care these trauma reactions can be lasting and make it difficult to carry out basic tasks of everyday living.
Our Counseling Center is the only New York State licensed mental health clinic that focuses solely on trauma-focused treatment for survivors of crime and abuse of all ages.
We use evidence-based approaches to help survivors overcome trauma reactions that they can experience for months or years after.
The Counseling Center serves adults, children and their families. Our clients have experienced all types of abuse. We have helped survivors as young as seven months and as old as 78.
The Counseling Center can also connect survivors to other Safe Horizon services including:
- Practical assistance
- Court services
- Shelter for victims of domestic violence or homeless youth
- Support groups
Our Counseling Center has offices located in downtown Brooklyn and East Harlem.
