WELCOME
Heartfelt House is a not-for-profit organisation that provides therapeutic group programs for women survivors of childhood sexual abuse with positive outcomes for healing and recovery.
We also provide support services for family, partners and friends of survivors, as well as workshops for professionals in the community.
Heartfelt House is one of the many services managed by the Northern Rivers Women and Children Services (NORWACS).
HOW WE WORK
Heartfelt House is a not-for-profit organisation that provides services for women survivors of childhood sexual abuse and their families.
​
We do this primarily through an 10-week therapeutic program run in a workshop style, which is completely confidential & supportive, holding a safe space for women.
WHAT THEY SAY
"Thanks to Heartfelt House I can choose to view myself as a survivor. I have choice and power over my thoughts and my old stories in my head. From deep in my heart, thank you to Heartfelt House. I did not know how to do it myself. You have literally saved my life."
​
​
"My wish for you is that the parts of you that may have felt abandoned and alone and afraid will find a home here at Heartfelt House, where all of you is welcome. And that you find the peace that you deserve."
​
"Having completed the program, I want to share with you that there has been nothing in my forty-year recovery journey that has come close to this experience in terms of it’s healing power, nor its capacity to support me to change my relationship with myself and others."
