Questions & safety
The things worth asking first
Honest answers to the questions survivors most often have. If yours isn't here, please reach out, gently and without obligation.
Safety
Will this re-traumatise me?
Every practice is opt-out and paced entirely by you. Every module carries content warnings, and a crisis protocol and referral pathway are built in. You are always in control of what you do, when, and how far you go.
What if a practice feels like too much?
You stop. Stopping is the work succeeding, your "no" being heard, perhaps for the first time in a long time. The course teaches grounding tools to return to safety, and nothing is ever required.
Is this safe to do without a therapist?
Many people do RECLAIMED alongside their own healing, and we strongly encourage involving a therapist where you can, a clinician hand-off note is included to make that easy. The course is built to be safe and self-paced, but it is a complement to professional care, not a replacement for it.
The course
Is this therapy?
No. RECLAIMED is trauma-informed education and self-development. It works beautifully alongside your therapist, but it is not a substitute for professional care.
I've already tried everything. Why would this be different?
You've likely tried talking. RECLAIMED reaches what talk often can't, the body, and walks you there gently, in the right order, at your pace.
Isn't this just for women?
No. RECLAIMED is built for all genders. The language never assumes who you are, or who harmed you.
What if I'm not ready for the intimacy parts?
Then you simply don't do them. The partner and intimacy material is optional and sits at the very end. Most of the course is about your relationship with yourself. Finishing without it is a complete and successful outcome.
How long do I have access?
The course is self-paced with no deadlines, and your access includes lifetime updates. You move through it in whatever time feels right for you.
"But what about my experience…"
My body responded at the time. Does that mean it wasn't really assault?
No. Arousal is an automatic physical reflex, like flinching or your mouth watering at food. It is not desire, and it is not consent. A body responding does not mean a person agreed. This is one of the most silencing wounds survivors carry, and RECLAIMED addresses it directly and gently.
I'm not sure it "counts." It wasn't a stranger / I didn't fight back / I'd been with them before.
It counts. You do not have to have fought, screamed, or been harmed by a stranger for it to be real. The absence of consent is what matters, not whether your experience matches a story you've seen elsewhere. You are welcome here exactly as you are.
I still have feelings for the person who hurt me. Is something wrong with me?
Nothing is wrong with you. Continuing to feel attachment to someone who harmed you, especially someone you knew or loved, is a recognised psychological response, not a weakness or a fault. You are not broken or complicit for it, and the course meets this without judgement.
Is this only for recent experiences?
No. Whether it happened last year or decades ago, the disconnection and the wounds are just as real, and just as worth healing. Many survivors come to this work years later, when they finally feel ready.
Practical
What if I start and it isn't right for me?
You have 30 days. If RECLAIMED isn't the right support for you, for any reason, write to us and we'll refund you in full. Healing should never be a financial trap.
Are there reduced-cost places?
Yes. A number of free and reduced scholarship places are offered each intake. If cost is a barrier, please reach out, we never want price to be the reason someone can't begin.
