When a child experiences trauma, the wounds are not just physical – they are emotional, psychological, and deeply rooted. For survivors like Sharmila, healing is not just about finding a safe place to stay; it’s about rebuilding trust, regaining self-worth, and learning how to live again. That’s where Antardristi Nepal steps in, offering trauma-focused counseling to help young girls recover from unimaginable experiences.
With Antardristi Nepal facing a funding crisis, we must act now to ensure that these crucial mental health services continue. Join us in raising $50,000 by April 2025 to keep these life-changing programs available for survivors.
Why Counseling is Essential for Healing
Survivors of abuse often struggle with depression, anxiety, PTSD, and deep emotional wounds that don’t simply fade with time. Without proper psychological support, they may carry the weight of trauma for years, preventing them from leading healthy, fulfilling lives.
At Antardtristi Nepal, counseling is at the heart of recovery. Through professional therapy, survivors receive:
- A Safe Place to Process Trauma – Girls learn to express their emotions and begin to understand that the abuse they endured was not their fault.
- Emotional Regulation Techniques – Therapy teaches survivors coping skills to manage stress, anxiety, and fear.
- Support in Rebuilding Self-Esteem – Many survivors feel broken, ashamed, or isolated. Counseling helps them regain confidence and self-worth.
- Guidance for a Brighter Future –With continued therapy, these young girls can set goals, pursue education, and reclaim their lives.
Sharmila’s Healing Journey
At 14 years old, Sharmila’s world was shattered when she was repeatedly abused by her own father and later by others in her neighborhood. After being rescued and brought to Antardristi Nepal, her recovery journey began with trauma-focused counseling.
For the first time, she had someone to listen, someone who assured her that she was not alone. With each session, she began to open up, work through her fears, and rediscover hope.
Today, Sharmila is not just surviving – she is healing. She attends school, makes friends, and envisions a future beyond her past trauma. This transformation is made possibly by the power of counseling – and by generous supporters like you.
Why Your Support Matters

Hope for Nepal Girls
Despite the proven impact of Antardristi Nepal’s mental health services, these programs are at risk of shutting down due to a lack of funding. Without support, may girls will lose access to the therapy that helps them heal.
We cannot let this happen. That’s why Innovative Counseling Partners (ICP) is working to raise $50,000 by April 2025 – to ensure that counseling remains available for every girl who needs it.
