Sessions of a psychologist in the regions and Kutaisi

The work of a psychologist is carried out in the regions where the Women Support Centers operate and in Kutaisi, at the head office of the Women Fund “Sukhumi”.

In April, there were meetings in Terjola, Kobuleti, Senaki and Zugdidi (village Khurcha) municipalities. Individual and group meetings were held with women – there were 21 participants. Such meetings often identify victims of violence, with whom specific communication begins. In April - 4 victims of domestic violence were identified. They were given the first recommendations and continued psychotherapeutic sessions.

Despite live meetings, online individual sessions are still going on – during the month 15 beneficiaries communicated with the psychologist online.

In parallel, the work was carried out in Kutaisi, in the office of the Women Fund "Sukhumi" - with the participation of 16 beneficiaries. Four of them are victims of violence and the psychologist worked with them more intensively. Two couples used the individual psychological service.

The words of one of the participants in psychotherapy sessions: You showed me the other side of life! Who I am, what I was, and showed what kind of mother I can be for my children, awakened in me the desire to live, I am immensely grateful - Eka. 29 years.

The project is implemented with the support of the organization Brot
