It’s World Mental Health Day. Everyone is entitled to good mental health. Those who have suffered abuse are disproportionately affected by mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and suicide ideation.
Our work is focused on reducing the trauma they feel and helping them move on with their lives. 74% of women who have come through our Eva Therapy Service have significantly lowered depression; 69% overcome their trauma symptoms; 78%* of those who felt suicidal no longer are.
Our Eva Therapy Service receives no public funding; we rely on charitable grants and donations to continue to run our trauma-focused therapy service to help women and girls affected by experiences of abuse. If you would like to make a voluntary contribution you can do so at Vida Sheffield | Localgiving
* as of end March 2023, based on a sample 189 service users.
