There is a general perception that most rapes are perpetrated by a man against a woman and usually by a stranger. This does happen, but in most cases, the majority of those raped, know the rapist.

“With the right help, it is possible to move on, to put what has happened behind you, to become empowered and to rebuild you life”

At Jigsaw we can give you time, acknowledgement of your pain and understanding of your needs in the ‘here and now’ of your experience.

 All therapy rooms are designed to be calm, confidential, safe and private, allowing the client time and space to explore their experience with a trained professional.

Men get raped too!

Every individual reacts in his or her own way after being a target of rape or sexual assault. This reaction has no bearing on gender apart from the usual stigma from other people. At Jigsaw we have male and female professionals trained to work with the posttraumatic effects of rape and/or sexual violence.
