Sexual Trauma & Domestic Violence Recovery

Experiencing sexual trauma or domestic violence can shatter a sense of safety and self-worth. If you’re living with fear, flashbacks, or emotional numbness, please know: what happened was not your fault—and healing is possible. At the American Wellness Center in Dubai, we offer compassionate, trauma-informed care to help women reclaim their voice, rebuild trust in themselves, and feel safe again.

Who This Is For

This service supports women in Dubai who are:

  • Survivors of sexual abuse, assault, or harassment
  • Living with or recovering from domestic or intimate partner violence
  • Experiencing flashbacks, nightmares, or hypervigilance
  • Feeling emotionally disconnected, anxious, or ashamed
  • Struggling to set boundaries or trust others in current relationships

No matter when the trauma occurred—recently or years ago—your pain is valid, and support is available.

What We Address

Our trauma recovery care helps with:

  • Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD): Intrusive memories, sleep disruption, or emotional distress
  • Anxiety, Depression & Emotional Numbness: Emotional flatness, sadness, or difficulty feeling joy
  • Shame & Self-Blame: Releasing guilt and internalized judgment from abuse
  • Safety Planning: Creating safe exit strategies for those currently in abusive relationships
  • Trust & Relationship Repair: Healing attachment wounds and improving communication in safe relationships
  • Empowerment & Boundary Support: Rebuilding self-esteem and healthy relationship patterns

We tailor our approach to your unique experience, pace, and needs—never rushing the process.

Our Approach

We use trauma-sensitive, client-centered methods such as:

  • Trauma-Focused Therapy (e.g., EMDR, CBT, ACT): To process traumatic memories and build emotional resilience
  • Grounding & Coping Techniques: Tools to regulate overwhelm and regain control
  • Safety Planning & Crisis Support: Confidential guidance for women currently in dangerous environments
  • Empowerment Coaching: Restoring self-trust, self-worth, and personal agency
