Rahi Foundation supports women survivors of incest/ child sexual abuse.

RAHI's Free Counselling Service.jpg

The lockdowns that are compelling people to be at home, is creating new fears and anxieties and also intensifying existing ones. This can be especially difficult for women survivors of incest/child sexual abuse who may already be struggling to deal with the impact of their abuse. It can trigger past traumas manifesting in forms such as flashbacks and sudden memories.  

To address this situation, RAHI is offering its counselling services for women survivors of incest/child sexual abuse online or on phone for free during this time. 

If you are a woman survivor of incest/CSA, and want to speak to one of our trained therapists, please write to us on counselling.rahi@gmail.com. Mention the city/town you are living in. RAHI will connect you with a therapist.
