I have examined domestic violence and marital distress from a wider perspective that encapsulates not only interventions at the therapeutic level, but also broad-based interventions aimed at a revision that includes many contemporary multicultural issues. I believe that there are numerous risk factors that serve as perpetrators of aggression in couple relationships including: (a) relationship distress, (b) the escalation of negative behavioral couple communication, (c) maladaptive behavioral responses in conflict situations, (d) deficits in couple conflict resolution skills, (e) aberrant cognitive functioning leading to heightened risk factors and (f) negative multicultural influences based on embedded warped beliefs, values and cultural norms (Gurman et al., 2015).

Christina Andino
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
As a therapist specializing in domestic abuse and violence therapy, I am deeply committed to providing a safe and supportive environment for individuals who have experienced the profound impact of such traumatic situations. My role is to offer compassionate guidance and empower clients to navigate the complex emotions, challenges, and aftermath associated with domestic abuse.
In our therapeutic sessions, we work collaboratively to address the immediate safety concerns and create a personalized plan tailored to the unique needs of each individual. Together, we explore the dynamics of abuse, facilitate healing from both physical and emotional wounds, and develop coping strategies to rebuild a sense of security and self-worth.
I strive to empower survivors to regain control over their lives by assisting in the identification and establishment of healthy boundaries, fostering self-esteem, and promoting resilience. Through a trauma-informed approach, I aim to provide a pathway towards healing, recovery, and the restoration of a life free from the shackles of domestic abuse. My commitment is to support, validate, and guide individuals towards a brighter and more empowered future.

Our therapists here at CSP are trained in recognizing, understanding, and treating survivors of domestic abuse. Examples of treatment approaches we specialize in to help domestic violence survivors process and heal from past abusive relationships include: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Person Centered Therapy (PCT), Trauma Focused – Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Prolonged Exposure Therapy (PE). Key aspects of our treatment for domestic violence survivors includes assisting our clients in overcoming their trauma through psycho-education, self-empowerment, and developing healthy and appropriate coping skills for emotional and behavioral regulation. We provide education on the cycle of violence, identifying warning signs of abusive partners, and recognizing how domestic abuse may have impacted and distorted their perception of self and others. Our ultimate goal for our clients who have endured domestic abuse involves finding self-empowerment, strength and stability to live the life they are seeking.
