Expert Profile: Shaylin

Expertise:  I major in Criminology at University and am studying to become a police officer. I have experienced the effects of rape, mentally and physically. I have helped others who have been attacked. I am a very good listener and know how difficult it is to ask for help when you are confused, or scared. I`ll be an un-judging ear to listen and provide help as I have lived through it.

Experience in the area
I was attacked nearly thee years ago, and have gone through the first relationship after, the recalled memory and the fights to not go to counseling ect. I have helped friends who have been through date rape, and other forms of assault. I have done a lot of research on it, and feel I'll be able to both logically and emotionally help you deal with your experience.

Education/Credentials
Nearly done a diploma in Criminology.

What do you like about this subject?  I don't like the subject, who does? However I believe it's important for people to talk about it. I also found that talking about it really helped me. As well as having an outlet for friends and family of survivors can be a great help, being a secondary survivor is not easy either so it’s good to be able to talk it out with someone anonymous.
