In our sessions, my primary commitment is to provide a safe, trauma-informed sanctuary where your voice is honored and your safety is the highest priority. I focus on helping you process the impact of your experiences while gently identifying and building the internal resources needed to foster autonomy and self-worth. We will work at a pace that feels comfortable for you, utilizing grounding techniques and compassionate support to help you move from survival toward a life defined by your own values, healing, and personal freedom."

Too often abuse grows from a sense of "deserving" it - which is never true, a belief that you have no options - which is never true - but does require thoughtful and safe planning if you are choosing to extricate yourself from a relationship that has all the potential for getting worse - unless your abuser is able to take responsibility for his/her abusive behavior.

Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Domestic abuse often creates very painful symptoms and is something for which I use a therapy called Prolonged Exposure (PE). In this therapy, we will revisit traumatic situations, process painful emotions, and change unhelpful beliefs about yourself and the world around you as a result of your trauma. People are often amazed at how quickly this treatment can work and by the very meaningful change that can result. For these reasons, this is one of my favorite treatments to provide.

Therapy is an essential form of support for victims of domestic abuse and domestic violence, allowing them to recover from the trauma and reestablish control of their lives. Domestic abuse and violence can cause victims severe emotional, psychological, and physical damage, and therapy provides a secure and compassionate environment to address the effects of these experiences and work toward healing and recovery.
It is essential to remember that therapy for survivors of domestic violence is a personal and delicate process. Therapists trained in trauma-informed care and with experience working with survivors of domestic violence can offer the most effective and compassionate support.
If you or someone you know is a survivor of domestic abuse or domestic violence, it is recommended that you seek help from a qualified therapist or counselor with experience working with this population to begin the process of healing and reclaiming control of your life. Additionally, contacting local domestic violence resources and support services can provide valuable assistance and planning for safety.
