Somatic Healing Group for Male Survivors of Childhood Sexual Abuse | Gold Coast

If you have found your way here, something in you is ready, even if another part of you isn’t sure.

What happened to you was not your fault. And for many men, myself included many years ago, those words have never been heard, let alone felt as true. This group exists to change that.

HomeComing is a closed, trauma-informed somatic support group for adult men healing from the impacts of childhood sexual abuse. It is a steady, compassionate, and confidential space, held with care and clear boundaries, where healing, connection, and integration become possible, often for the first time.

Many men who carry this history have spent years managing alone. Keeping it contained. Functioning. Getting on with it. However, beneath the surface, the impacts show up in the body, in relationships, in patterns of shutdown, reactivity, shame, or disconnection that can feel impossible to shift without understanding where they come from.

This group offers something that individual work alone cannot, which is the experience of being truly understood by other men who know. That recognition, that moment of realising you are not alone, is itself profoundly healing. It is where shame begins to lose its grip.

Over eight weeks, the group supports you to build a genuine sense of safety, grounding, and presence in the body. You will develop somatic tools for working with difficult emotions like grief, anger, fear, and shame, and strengthen your capacity for emotional regulation, moving gradually from survival patterns toward greater stability. You will begin to clarify your boundaries, limits, and personal truth, and discover how growth can include gentle, supported discomfort rather than force or pressure. And over time, many men find themselves reconnecting with a sense of purpose, empowerment, and direction they had long stopped believing was available to them.

This group is not about reliving or performing your story, it is about coming home to yourself, at whatever pace your system needs, supported by the shared courage and collective wisdom of the group.
