Domestic Abuse
Liz Frings
Counsellor/Therapist, PG Diploma Person-Centred Psychotherapy. EMDR Accredited
Sexual and domestic violence leave impacts that extend far beyond the immediate physical harm. These experiences can fundamentally alter how you see yourself, others, and the world around you—and those effects are valid regardless of how long ago the violence occurred or what form it took.
Emotional and Psychological Effects
You might experience intense emotions like fear, shame, guilt, or anger—sometimes all at once. Many survivors struggle with anxiety, depression, or feeling emotionally numb. You may find yourself hypervigilant, constantly scanning for danger, or experiencing flashbacks and intrusive memories that make it feel like the trauma is happening again. Sleep disturbances, nightmares, and difficulty concentrating are common. Some survivors describe feeling disconnected from their bodies or experiencing moments where they don’t feel fully present.
Impact on Identity and Relationships
Violence, especially from someone you trusted, can shake your sense of who you are and your ability to trust your own judgment. You might struggle with self-blame, even though the violence was never your fault. Intimacy—both physical and emotional—can become complicated or frightening. You may find yourself withdrawing from relationships, or alternately, seeking connection in ways that don’t feel healthy. Setting boundaries might feel impossible, or you might build walls so high that no one can reach you.
Physical Effects
Trauma lives in the body. You might experience chronic pain, headaches, digestive issues, or other physical symptoms that doctors struggle to explain. Your body’s stress response system may be on constant alert, leading to exhaustion, tension, or feeling unsafe in your own skin.

Domestic Abuse
Emma Poxon
Counsellor/Therapist, MA Person-Centred Experiential Counselling
Domestic abuse or violence is an incredibly painful thing to experience, whether you are still in your situation or have left your situation, I can support you. As your therapist I am here to be with you, reminding you that you are not alone. We can explore what you have experienced without fear of it being "too much". Therapy is a space wherein you can say and do anything, and I am here to be your support throughout this, allowing the pain to have a space to dissipate in. You are not a problem to be fixed, my aim as your therapist is to try to provide the right conditions to allow you to explore whatever you want to bring to therapy to support your growth. This isn't a therapeutic approach wherein I will set a treatment plan or tell you what to do. We will work together as a partnership rather than me taking away your autonomy. I absolutely love the work I do, it is the biggest privilege being let into people’s personal worlds and seeing the immense growth of my clients. I hope to hear from you soon!

Domestic Abuse
Dr Aneliya Gonsard
Psychologist, DClinPscy, MSc, BA
I have worked with a number of people who have sought support because of being in an abusive relationship. In my clinical experience, at least, there is often a struggle between the part of the person that knows they are being victimised, and another part that finds it very difficult to leave and imagine different possibilities (being alone; or being in an overall caring and supportive relationship). Domestic abuse also takes place between family members, who are not in an intimate relationship (for example parents towards their children, and they other way around).
Please get in touch, if you think you are or have been in any way part of an abusive or violent family dynamic, and would like to think about this with a mental health professional.

Domestic Abuse
Marc Donegan, Psychotherapist
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychodynamic Analysis & Transactional Analysis, PACFA, BACP, ITTA, EATA, UKATA
Whether someone is processing the impact of domestic abuse or working to understand and change abusive patterns of their own, this is careful, structured work. I help clients rebuild a stronger sense of self and safer relational patterns, drawing on trauma-informed practice to understand how early experience shapes adult relationships.
