Domestic Abuse or Violence
Healing and Empowerment Counseling Center
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Teri Dunbar, LCSW
Are you tired of having your past experience or past traumas interfere with your ability to have the life you want? Or are you a parent of a child that has experienced trauma and don’t want that experience to dictate the course of their life?
I help adolescents and young adults that have experienced trauma and are experiencing feelings of shame, anger, detachment, anxiety, and depression, and having a difficult time in their relationships, work, and day to day life. I help them to overcome and cope with such feelings, and empower them to have the life they want through healing from their past traumas.
I specialize in working with individuals that have experienced stressful or dangerous events such as child abuse, domestic violence, the loss of a parent, parents that have struggled with substance abuse or mental illness, or just multiple bad days strung together.
It can be hard to know where to start and almost impossible to start alone. I would love to help guide you through this process. I am only offering virtual therapy at this time. Please send me an email and I follow-up with a phone call to discuss how I may be able to help.

Rachel Ann Dine
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC, LPC
The cycle of domestic violence is complex and feels like a blur. From feeling connected and in a state of calm (i.e. the honeymoon stage) to feeling like you have to walk on eggshells around your partner for fear of upsetting them (tension building) to then experiencing a violent physical or verbal altercation that seemingly comes out of nowhere (explosion), this cycle can feel confusing, disheartening, and near impossible to leave. Maybe you hold onto the "good" you see in your partner, hoping they will finally change. I get it. And I offer a very compassionate understanding approach to how this process can play out. Loss of identity and knowing who you are is so common in unhealthy, abusive relationships. Often times, you've had to live in a way that suppresses your emotions because you don't want to arbitrarily upset your partner. Feeling like a shell of who you once were is also common and I help women navigate through this complex process, recreate a strong identity, RECLAIM your identity, and feel more confident. Contrary to what others (or your partner) may tell you, abuse is NOT your fault and everyone, including you, is SO worthy of being treated with respect. If you have been looking for a provider to help you through this process, please reach out. I offer a down to earth, validating approach and have years of experience understanding the nuances of abusive relationships as well as helping survivors heal.

Rory Valentine Diller
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., LMFT Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist #139783
I have worked distinctly with survivors of domestic violence for over 10 years. I help clients understand the nuanced dynamics of unhealthy relationships, the tactics of narcissistic abusers and high conflict people, and the factors that perpetuate cycles of abuse and keep survivors in unsafe situations. I work with them to heal from physical, emotional, and sexual abuse, and guide them towards safety and healthy relationships without judgement. I am a survivor myself and deeply "get" a lot of what my clients are working to heal from.
