For men who have experienced sexual abuse or assault
Here at Living Well we run our sexual abuse support groups for men throughout the year. Please contact us if you want more information or wish to register your interest in participating in our next Living Well Group. We invite you to give us a call on (07) 3028 4648 to add your name to the list.
Historically we have run the Living Well sexual abuse support group three to four times per year. Each group can be rather different to the next, but it always seems to be of enormous benefit to the men (of all ages) who attend.
Two of the Living Well counselling team facilitate the group.
Monthly drop in mens’ support groups
In addition to the above support groups, we also run a monthly “drop-in” group. These groups are usually for men who have participated in the above therapeutic group already, or have attended counselling with a Living Well counsellor.
The drop-in group is a more casual catch up and support group and, while they are continuing on a monthly basis, there is no commitment or expectation involved. You are free to “drop in” whenever you feel like attending.
While we know that joining a group can feel more than a little daunting, the feedback we have received from those men who have participated is that it has been very helpful and they would highly recommend it.

How to join
The sexual abuse support groups for men are open to all men, over 18 years of age, who have experienced sexual abuse and/or sexual assault. Men wishing to join the group can call (07) 3028 4648. Otherwise you can send us an email to book a pre-group conversation with a Living Well counsellor. We can do this either face-to-face or by telephone.

Hi there,
What a strange coincidence, I was listening to one of your mindfulness meditations as came upon it by chance at lunchtime today while having a sandwich at my desk and saw the advert for the ‘living well men’s group’. I thought oh, there is a resource I can refer client’s on to only to look up the details and discover you are in far off Australia. Love your website and your chillaxing meditations, well done.
