Emotional Assistance

A terror attack happens in an instant, but it changes lives forever. For families affected by terror, coping with their trauma (PTSD) is a daily and on-going struggle. OneFamily acknowledges the unique feeling of loneliness that engulfs victims of such trauma, making them feel isolated from the rest of the world. We bring together a community of individuals who can understand each other’s pain by providing therapeutic support groups, workshops and retreats.

Our psychologists, trauma experts and grief counselors provide emotionally therapeutic rehabilitation to victims and their families with individual therapy, group therapy, therapeutic retreats, attendance at memorial ceremonies, as well as weekly classes and workshops.  We strive for emotional wholeness and total wellbeing, and therefore offer alternative therapy options, like EMDR, deep tissue massages, meditation and yoga, art therapy, psychodrama, etc.

We aim to strengthen the family unit by maintaining close relationships with each member, working individually with parents/spouses, children/siblings. Our case workers spend countless hours each day making home and hospital visits, speaking over the phone, providing a listening ear or a shoulder to cry on. When each victim is ready, they are gently encouraged to progress to a healthier emotional state. We hold their hand with every vital step that they take.  OneFamily welcomes victims and their families into our larger family – providing each family the external support needed to prevent further deterioration of the home during the months and years following an attack. Quite the opposite, we help each person flourish to the best of their ability.
