Domestic Abuse
Eve Palmatier
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Interpersonal Violence is a difficult issue to navigate. Abuse is often a multigenerational pattern; where people learn young that being belittled, controlled, and threatened are acceptable and normal. Relationships are complicated, pain and fear are often alongside love and affection. Add living in a world with an ever increasing cost of living and unstable housing, and a person can find themselves in a precarious situation fast. I've worked with people who realize they are being mistreated, and want support in building healthier relationships and creating a more loving and stable life for themselves. I've also supported those who've realized they are repeating the cycle, and want to learn how to build a healthy relationship without being violent and controlling towards those they love. Its a process of both recognizing what sort of treatment is unacceptable, and learning about what healthy and safe relationships look like. I try to be a nonjudgemental and safe space for those who are working through these realizations.

Domestic Abuse
Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed therapy for individuals who have experienced domestic abuse, intimate partner violence, emotional abuse, coercive control, or the lasting psychological effects of unsafe or harmful relationships. Survivors of domestic violence often experience trauma responses such as anxiety, hypervigilance, depression, shame, fear, emotional numbness, difficulty trusting others, and feeling disconnected from themselves and others.
Brad takes a holistic, trauma-focused approach to healing from domestic abuse, helping clients safely process their experiences and begin rebuilding a sense of stability, self-worth, and emotional safety. Therapy provides a confidential, supportive environment where clients can explore their experiences at their own pace without judgment, pressure, or fear.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, emotional regulation strategies, and holistic therapeutic approaches to help clients process traumatic memories, reduce emotional distress, and restore a sense of control and grounding. Treatment focuses on supporting nervous system regulation, rebuilding self-trust, and helping clients move out of survival-based patterns into healthier, more empowered ways of living.
Healing from domestic abuse often involves more than talk therapy alone. When trauma is deeply embedded, it can affect emotional regulation, relationships, decision-making, and physical well-being. Brad’s approach focuses on addressing the root impact of trauma so clients can experience meaningful, lasting recovery rather than short-term coping.
Therapy is collaborative and individualized, supporting each client’s unique needs, safety considerations, and healing goals. The process often includes strengthening boundaries, improving emotional resilience, rebuilding identity, and restoring the ability to feel safe in relationships again.
Healing and recovery are possible. With the right support, survivors of domestic abuse can move beyond the effects of trauma, reclaim their sense of self, and build a life grounded in safety, strength, and emotional freedom.

Domestic Abuse
Allen Shamon
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
The safety of the survivor is paramount. I prioritize immediate safety concerns and provide crisis intervention as needed. This may involve helping the survivor develop a safety plan, accessing emergency shelter or support services, and connecting with resources such as hotlines or advocacy organizations.
