Dr. Patricia Webbink
Psychologist, MA and PhD in Clinical Psychology
For many years, I have offered counseling for individuals, as well as for couples, families, and groups, who have suffered from domestic abuse (including narcissistic abuse) or violence. A pioneer in the field of rape and violence as Women's Issues, I have been quoted in numerous articles and books on these subjects, as well as being the author of an article for "Victimology Magazine". I provided the original staff training at the DC Rape Crisis Center and followed up with active support of their counselors. I also worked with the DC Area Women's Center. I testified at the Rape Council Hearings in the 1970's and have been featured in a prime time TV series on rape. In addition, I was the Chair of the National Institute against Prejudice and Violence in Baltimore, Maryland for many years. Please feel free to call for information or a consultation: 301-229-8000

Shelby Willoughby
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LMSW
In my therapeutic approach to treating domestic abuse or violence, I integrate various modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), compassion focus therapy, and relational therapy to address underlying trauma and promote healing. Through art therapy and narrative therapy techniques, I provide clients with alternative ways to express their experiences and process their emotions in a safe and supportive environment. Additionally, I incorporate family systems therapy to explore dynamics within the family unit and facilitate communication and understanding, aiming to empower individuals affected by domestic abuse to create healthier relationships and break the cycle of violence.

Mikela Hallmark
Therapist, MS, LPC, LMHC
Abuse—whether emotional, physical, sexual, or psychological—can fracture our relationship with safety, trust, and even our own instincts. Survivors often carry a deep, quiet knowing that something is wrong, paired with an equally strong impulse to minimize or hide it. In this space, there is no need to explain away your pain.
I work with survivors to gently untangle trauma from identity — honoring the coping strategies that helped you survive while making room for something new. Our work isn’t about re-living the past, but about understanding how it still lives in your body, your relationships, and your nervous system.
Together, we build safety from the inside out. We go at your pace. And slowly, over time, you begin to feel what it’s like to be seen without fear, to set boundaries without shame, and to live without apologizing for the space you take up.
