Domestic Abuse or Violence
Daniel Klassen
Psychologist, Provisional Psychologist (P7619) in Alberta, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC 19147) for the rest of Canada
Unfortunately, domestic abuse and violence is more common than it should be. It begins when one person in a close relationship becomes disgruntled with another, or a situation, and starts mistreating another. It starts innocently enough, with words or behaviors that are disrespectful and maybe a bit cutting. If this behavior is not addressed or resolved, it can escalate and become more severe. Hurt inflicted by a more powerful person is often transferred to the less powerful, leading to confusion, fear, anger, and a decrease in well-being for everyone involved. Serious abuse, violence, and even torture or murder can result from this escalating cycle. As a youth, Daniel was an innocent bystander in his own home, where unchecked anger and violence led to his hospitalization. There is a madness to this cycle, rooted in emotional pain. Daniel works to unravel the hurt and confusion, promote understanding, and create a path to freedom and possibility for all involved.

I have counselled many females regarding domestic abuse - both physical and emotional. I have specifically worked with those who are facing PTSD related to this trauma and have also prepared women clients for court - and the emotional repercussions that this can have.

Lorna Barnes, Oak Tree Counselling
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CT, CPC
Counselling can help if clients are experiencing domestic abuse or violence. It is often difficult to seek help because we start believing we deserve it, or we are afraid to stand up for ourselves, we're afraid the abuser will get worse, or we don't know how we'll survive financially. There is help out there and support from trained professionals who have often experienced domestic abuse themselves. Safety is the number one concern. Clients will experience relief when they are able to get help because they'll learn there is life outside of abuse. It is possible to heal and thrive after abuse.
