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.
