Although many of our staff are trained in such fields as counseling and psychology, they are not working at Christian Survivors in the capacity of counselors or therapists. We are here, as a group, to mutually support each other in friendship! The staff are all survivors of abuse themselves, who have committed to working towards creating and maintaining a safe, supportive environment on our forums.
It is also important for members to be aware that our staff have a policy of accountability to one another, as protection for themselves, and the members they work with. If you discuss your situation, in private, with a member of staff, they may speak with other more senior staff about it, as a point of help or advice for them. These discussions are kept strictly confidential among the staff team!
If you are feeling suicidal or are at immediate risk of injuring yourself, please seek help in real life!
These guidelines, and all the other rules we hold at CS are for the safety of yourself, and the other members of the forum, so please respect them.
