Mental Health Care - Midrand, Gauteng, South Africa
Being a victim of crime is unexpected, frightening and overwhelming. Often there is no sign of physical injury, but the traumatic event has a serious impact on the mental and emotional well-being of the victim. It is common for people who have experienced very traumatic situations to experience a range of physical and emotional symptoms for weeks or months following the event. Understanding these normal responses to abnormal events can help you cope with difficult thoughts, feelings and behaviours and support your recovery. The Midrand Victim Empowerment Centre offers free and confidential trauma counselling and assistance to victims of crime. Our rooms are located at the Midrand Police Station.
