Domestic Abuse or Violence
Susan Spicer
Psychologist, PhD
As a licensed psychologist specializing in treating victims of domestic violence, I understand the profound and lasting impact that trauma of this nature can have on an individual's life. These experiences can become deeply ingrained in both the mind and body, affecting how you navigate relationships, approach parenting, and engage in daily living. The trauma from domestic abuse and domestic violence can erode self-esteem and result in a constant state of hypervigilance, leaving you feeling anxious and jumpy, as if you are constantly walking on eggshells.
My approach to helping you heal from domestic abuse and domestic violence involves the use of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, which has proven effective in treating trauma associated with such experiences. Through EMDR, we can work together to facilitate the recovery process, increase resilience, establish healthy boundaries, and enhance coping skills. My goal is to empower you to build the resilience needed to manage difficult a relationship, or find the strength to leave it, ultimately facilitating healing and fostering a path toward a healthier, more fulfilling life.

Dawn Nelson
Counselor/Therapist, LCSW-S, ACSW, SAP, CART
Abuse is a complicated issue within a family because it usually involves both love and inappropriate behaviors. Clients feel mixed emotions. I provide a safe, caring, and non-judgmental environment in which you can work through your thoughts and feelings to make the best decisions for you.

Dr. Carolina Castanos, PhD, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, PHD, LMFT
Victims or perpetrators of domestic abuse/violence are stuck in an abusive dynamic which most likely began before this relationship (in the case of adults) and will determine future relationships (in the case of kids). I work with recognizing this dynamic and uncovering deeper wounds.
