Domestic Abuse
Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In supporting individuals affected by domestic violence or intimate partner violence, I provide a safe and empathetic space for them to explore their experiences and emotions. Through therapy, we work together to address the impact of the abuse on their physical and emotional well-being, as well as their sense of safety and self-worth. I offer validation and support, helping survivors recognize that they are not alone and that the abuse is not their fault. Together, we develop safety plans and explore options for seeking support and resources, including shelters, legal assistance, and counseling services. Additionally, I help survivors process their trauma, rebuild their self-esteem, and establish boundaries in future relationships. My goal is to empower survivors to heal from the effects of domestic violence, regain control over their lives, and move forward with strength and resilience.

Domestic Abuse
Sabina Mauro
Psychologist, PsyD
Domestic violence can affect far more than a person's immediate sense of safety. Whether the abuse was physical, emotional, psychological, or controlling, its effects may continue to influence how you view yourself, make decisions, and navigate relationships long after the experience has ended. My approach focuses on helping survivors understand trauma-related responses, including hypervigilance, self-doubt, guilt, and difficulty trusting others or themselves. Through individualized, trauma-informed treatment, we explore the connection between past experiences and present-day challenges while working to restore confidence, strengthen boundaries, and rebuild a sense of emotional safety. Healing does not follow a straight path, and it does not require you to have all the answers. Together, we work toward helping you reclaim your voice, your choices, and your sense of self.

Domestic Abuse
Allyson Stephens
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
Domestic abuse can be a hard cycle to break. I think it is important to come from a non-judgemental lens and understand what is going on. I provide support if you decide to stay in the relationship or leave. I use trauma informed interventions like IFS, EMDR, and Somatic Therapy. Other interventions I use for crisis are CBT and DBT.
