Testimonial Lisa Cybaniak

I stumbled upon Alianne Looijenga in a Facebook business group when I noticed her work with helping survivors of abuse and domestic violence. I clicked on the link to her website and within a couple minutes, I just knew I had to get in touch. What an inspiration! She is so open and honest with her experiences, not just with the abuses she has endured, but with her recovery. Alianne is not afraid to vividly express the pain she felt along her journey, as well as every bit of joy and pride that comes with growth and healing.

She’s also not afraid to outline her experiences with the system that made her journey even more difficult, putting her and her children in dangerous situations. She points a very valid finger in the direction of the people and organisations that offered little to no support. More importantly, she fights for the change that is so necessary in this system. She does this by inspiring so many people, not just in her writings, but in her speaking events. She offers a real voice that hits home. If it could happen to her, it could happen to anyone.

She works tirelessly to help people understand the warning signs, and to support their loved ones in their journey to heal. I do not hesitate to contact Alianne when I am counselling someone in a domestic violence situation, as I know she will speak honest, caring, and moving words that will help guide me to support my clients in this situation.
