Domestic Abuse or Violence
Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In supporting individuals affected by domestic violence or intimate partner violence, I provide a safe and empathetic space for them to explore their experiences and emotions. Through therapy, we work together to address the impact of the abuse on their physical and emotional well-being, as well as their sense of safety and self-worth. I offer validation and support, helping survivors recognize that they are not alone and that the abuse is not their fault. Together, we develop safety plans and explore options for seeking support and resources, including shelters, legal assistance, and counseling services. Additionally, I help survivors process their trauma, rebuild their self-esteem, and establish boundaries in future relationships. My goal is to empower survivors to heal from the effects of domestic violence, regain control over their lives, and move forward with strength and resilience.

Sushma Cheturvedula
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
I'd be there for someone dealing with domestic abuse, giving them a safe spot to open up about what's happening without any judgment. We'd talk about how the abuse affects them emotionally and how it messes with their confidence. I'd also help them figure out ways to stay safe and get support, like finding shelters or legal help if needed. The goal of therapy would be to help them see their own strengths, feel better about themselves, and get out of the abusive situation for good.
