Domestic Abuse
MindOverHealing Therapies
Hypnotherapist, CHt
Domestic abuse involves a pattern of controlling and coercive behaviors in intimate relationships. It can be physical, emotional, psychological, sexual, or financial. The trauma from such experiences can lead to a range of mental health issues, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. Hypnotherapy allows individuals to access and process traumatic memories in a safe and controlled environment. By guiding clients into a relaxed state, hypnotherapists help them confront and release the emotional pain associated with their experiences.

Domestic Abuse
Laura Anderson LPCC, Eff Shame Therapy
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
Domestic violence leaves marks that don't always show — in the way you flinch, the way you apologize, the way you've learned to make yourself small, the way you've forgotten what it felt like to feel safe. What happened to you was not your fault, and the ways you survived it made sense at the time.
Healing from abuse means more than leaving — it means untangling what it did to your sense of self, your relationships, your body, and your trust in the world. I work from a trauma-informed, shame-free perspective using EMDR, Flash Technique, and evidence-based approaches to help you understand what happened, grieve it, and find your way back to yourself.
You survived it. Now let's get you back.

Santa Monica combines proximity to the entertainment industry with a strong wellness culture, creating demand for therapists who specialize in performance anxiety, the pressures of creative and entertainment careers, identity, and the particular stresses of living adjacent to fame and public scrutiny. The area's affluent demographic and beach lifestyle coexist with significant rates of anxiety, eating concerns, and relationship distress, and the Westside has a notably high density of experienced therapists relative to its size. Providence Saint John's Health Center and UCLA Health provide institutional mental health anchors for the Westside community. Many Santa Monica therapists also serve clients from Malibu, Pacific Palisades, and the broader Westside corridor.
