Domestic Abuse
Angelynn Lindor
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
With experience working on both sides of the domestic violence spectrum—supporting survivors and facilitating accountability with perpetrators—I bring a deep understanding of the complex dynamics involved in abuse. I’ve led batterer intervention programs for over two years, guided by the Duluth Model and the Cycle of Violence framework, and also provided individual and group support to victims reclaiming their safety and voice.My approach is rooted in accountability, education, and healing. Whether you’re confronting your own harmful behaviors or recovering from a relationship marked by control, fear, or trauma, I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space to unpack the impact of abuse and rebuild a life marked by respect, self-awareness, and choice.

10 Years Experience
Online in New Bedford, MA
New Bedford is a southeastern Massachusetts city with one of the most distinctive identities of any American city of its size—Herman Melville's Moby-Dick opens here, and the city was once the richest per capita in America thanks to its whaling industry—now home to the highest-volume commercial fishing port in the United States by dollar value, with an economy still anchored by fishing, manufacturing, and logistics. The city has a large Cape Verdean-American community (one of the largest in the world outside Cape Verde), as well as significant Portuguese and Brazilian populations, and the intersection of these communities' mental health needs—including the specific experiences of Cape Verdean identity, immigration, and intergenerational stress—creates important considerations for culturally competent care. Southcoast Health provides behavioral health services, and community health organizations serve the diverse population. Common therapy concerns include fishing industry occupational trauma and risk, Cape Verdean and Portuguese-American identity and immigration stress, economic anxiety, substance use (New Bedford has been significantly affected by opioids), and the mental health challenges of a proud working-class city navigating industrial and demographic change.
