Counselor/Therapist, NCCA CTCC CPC
Our counseling services for survivors of domestic abuse or violence provide a compassionate, safe space to address the trauma and complex emotions arising from abusive relationships. Understanding that domestic abuse can take many forms—physical, emotional, sexual, financial—we offer tailored support to empower individuals as they navigate their journey of healing and reclaim their lives.
Empowering Survival and Healing from Domestic Abuse
* Trauma-Informed Care: Drawing from trauma-informed approaches, our counseling services prioritize safety, choice, collaboration, trustworthiness, and empowerment, acknowledging the profound impact of trauma on an individual's life and facilitating a path toward recovery.
* Safety Planning: We assist clients in developing comprehensive safety plans, whether they are preparing to leave an abusive situation, in the process of leaving, or have already left. This planning addresses immediate safety, legal protections, financial security, and long-term independence.
* Emotional Support: Our counseling provides a supportive environment to process emotions such as fear, guilt, shame, anger, and grief, while also working to rebuild self-esteem, confidence, and a sense of self-worth that has been eroded by abuse.
* Healing from Trauma: Through evidence-based therapeutic techniques, we assist clients in processing and healing from the trauma of abuse, anxiety, and depression.
* Rebuilding Life Skills: The path to recovery includes rebuilding life skills that may have been lost or diminished due to abuse. We support clients in gaining independence, making their own decisions, and establishing a healthy, self-determined life.

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

Susan Spicer
Psychologist, PhD
As a licensed psychologist specializing in treating victims of domestic violence, I understand the profound and lasting impact that trauma of this nature can have on an individual's life. These experiences can become deeply ingrained in both the mind and body, affecting how you navigate relationships, approach parenting, and engage in daily living. The trauma from domestic abuse and domestic violence can erode self-esteem and result in a constant state of hypervigilance, leaving you feeling anxious and jumpy, as if you are constantly walking on eggshells.
My approach to helping you heal from domestic abuse and domestic violence involves the use of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, which has proven effective in treating trauma associated with such experiences. Through EMDR, we can work together to facilitate the recovery process, increase resilience, establish healthy boundaries, and enhance coping skills. My goal is to empower you to build the resilience needed to manage difficult a relationship, or find the strength to leave it, ultimately facilitating healing and fostering a path toward a healthier, more fulfilling life.
