Domestic Abuse therapists in Ponoka, Alberta AB, Canada CA
Lorna Barnes, Oak Tree Counselling
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CT, CPC
Counselling can help if clients are experiencing domestic abuse or violence. It is often difficult to seek help because we start believing we deserve it, or we are afraid to stand up for ourselves, we're afraid the abuser will get worse, or we don't know how we'll survive financially. There is help out there and support from trained professionals who have often experienced domestic abuse themselves. Safety is the number one concern. Clients will experience relief when they are able to get help because they'll learn there is life outside of abuse. It is possible to heal and thrive after abuse.

How can I disengage from a very toxic relationship? is it my fault? am I the victim or the offender? is it my fault? These are some questions that make as doubt about what is right and what is wrong in the situation we are dealing with. Is my husband/wife a psychopath? well.. that is a very good question. Let's figure it out together.
