Katherine Coder
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, PhD, LPC, LMHC
Domestic abuse and violence is deeply painful trauma. I offer crisis support if the abuse is happening presently and we can create a plan to get to safety for both you and any children if they are involved. If we are working after you have moved yourself to safety, we can work with the trauma that is still present. It is said that trauma is not what happened, but how are bodies are responding to what happened. We would likely take a trauma-focused approach to help you body and nervous system clear what is remaining from the abuse. We also want to tend to the grief and loss present from the abuse and the betrayal it is.

Brianna Gomez
Pre-Licensed Professional, MS - Bilingual Trauma Informed Therapist
I chose this career to help those individuals who may have difficulty finding help. Those who have experienced domestic abuse or violence so often find it difficult to access care which is supportive, non-judgmental, and effective. My primary goal in therapy with such types of survivors is to provide as much support and resources as possible until the client is ready to change the situation. Once clients are ready for change we begin the process of identifying ways in which the experience of abuse/violence may be affecting the client and their ability to function in a balanced way.

Mikela Hallmark
Therapist, MS, LPC, LMHC
Abuse—whether emotional, physical, sexual, or psychological—can fracture our relationship with safety, trust, and even our own instincts. Survivors often carry a deep, quiet knowing that something is wrong, paired with an equally strong impulse to minimize or hide it. In this space, there is no need to explain away your pain.
I work with survivors to gently untangle trauma from identity — honoring the coping strategies that helped you survive while making room for something new. Our work isn’t about re-living the past, but about understanding how it still lives in your body, your relationships, and your nervous system.
Together, we build safety from the inside out. We go at your pace. And slowly, over time, you begin to feel what it’s like to be seen without fear, to set boundaries without shame, and to live without apologizing for the space you take up.

Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed therapy for individuals who have experienced domestic abuse, intimate partner violence, emotional abuse, coercive control, or the lasting psychological effects of unsafe or harmful relationships. Survivors of domestic violence often experience trauma responses such as anxiety, hypervigilance, depression, shame, fear, emotional numbness, difficulty trusting others, and feeling disconnected from themselves and others.
Brad takes a holistic, trauma-focused approach to healing from domestic abuse, helping clients safely process their experiences and begin rebuilding a sense of stability, self-worth, and emotional safety. Therapy provides a confidential, supportive environment where clients can explore their experiences at their own pace without judgment, pressure, or fear.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, emotional regulation strategies, and holistic therapeutic approaches to help clients process traumatic memories, reduce emotional distress, and restore a sense of control and grounding. Treatment focuses on supporting nervous system regulation, rebuilding self-trust, and helping clients move out of survival-based patterns into healthier, more empowered ways of living.
Healing from domestic abuse often involves more than talk therapy alone. When trauma is deeply embedded, it can affect emotional regulation, relationships, decision-making, and physical well-being. Brad’s approach focuses on addressing the root impact of trauma so clients can experience meaningful, lasting recovery rather than short-term coping.
Therapy is collaborative and individualized, supporting each client’s unique needs, safety considerations, and healing goals. The process often includes strengthening boundaries, improving emotional resilience, rebuilding identity, and restoring the ability to feel safe in relationships again.
Healing and recovery are possible. With the right support, survivors of domestic abuse can move beyond the effects of trauma, reclaim their sense of self, and build a life grounded in safety, strength, and emotional freedom.

Gui Mansilla
Registered Psychotherapist, Lawyer (Arg) M.Div (USA) Reg. Psychotherapist (CA) Coach (Ca)
From my earliest years, a deep-seated commitment to justice took root in me, sparked by the passion of a Harvard-educated lawyer portrayed by Barry Newman in the television series Petrocelli. This attorney, forsaking the allure of Wall Street wealth, dedicated himself to serving the voiceless and underserved, often for a symbolic one-dollar fee. This childhood inspiration propelled me to pursue a legal career at the University of Buenos Aires to become a criminal lawyer at the age of 22. Although my professional journey led me through roles as an actor and ordained minister, culminating in my current roles as a psychotherapist and coach, I never strayed from my passion to protect the innocent and champion justice whenever needed.
Over the last few decades, I have intentionally immersed myself in the realm of domestic violence and abuse, driven by a conviction that, while understanding the roots of such actions in the trauma and pain of the perpetrators, we must stand firm to halt the cycle of violence and protect the victims. Though navigating this work while victims are still ensnared within the power dynamics of abuse is delicate and perilous, it brings extraordinary fulfillment to assist someone in breaking free. In rare cases, I've had the privilege of aiding abusers in turning their lives around.
Given my background as a criminal lawyer, minister, and specialized psychotherapist, it is my profound honour to support those in need, guiding them to break free from the grips of abuse and use their traumatic experiences as a catapult toward a life of fulfillment, freedom, and empowerment. The journey from victimization to liberation is undoubtedly treacherous and delicate, yet it stands as one of the most fulfilling paths one can take when breaking free from any form of abuse or violence.
Please don't hesitate to reach out, knowing that I stand ready to be in your corner, offering suggestions and guidance on how to avoid further harm and, ultimately, emerge free from the shackles of abuse or violence.

Ashley Mason
Counselor/Therapist, CMHC, LMHC
Living in or recovering from an abusive relationship can leave deep emotional scars — fear, shame, confusion, and the sense that you’ve lost your voice. Many of my clients grew up in families where love and harm were intertwined, making it harder to recognize red flags or believe they deserve better. In therapy, I offer a safe, steady space to process what’s happened, rebuild trust in yourself, and begin to heal from the manipulation and control. Over time, you can move from surviving to reclaiming your strength, your boundaries, and your life.
