Rachel Miller
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT
Domestic violence can profoundly affect safety, trust, and relational dynamics. I work with individuals and couples to carefully examine patterns of power and control and harm, address trauma responses, and rebuild clarity around boundaries, accountability, and choice. My approach supports survivors and couples in navigating healing, safety planning, and the complex relational work that may follow experiences of intimate partner violence.

Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologists, LCPC, LPC, LCSW, LSW, CADC, AMFT
Abuse can sometimes go unidentified for long periods of time, even by the victim. Not only can this impact levels of safety and trust in others and the world, but it can also impact how one trusts the self to make decisions and grasp reality. As is human nature, we develop mechanisms to help us survive trauma, which is a wonderful human ability. However, delineating between reality, survival responses, typical emotional needs, etc can be daunting once one has experienced and reacted to a trauma. We are here to help you create your own sense of safety and promote a true understanding of the self through mind-body awareness (where appropriate).

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.
