Domestic Abuse or Violence
Erik Stenglein
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LICSW
Specialties include domestic violence support, intimate partner violence, relationship trauma, safety planning, emotional recovery, and trauma-informed care for adults.
I work with adults 18+ who have experienced domestic or intimate partner violence. Many clients come to therapy feeling unsafe, isolated, or uncertain about how to navigate relationships and protect themselves. My approach is compassionate, trauma-informed, and empowering, helping clients process the impact of abuse, build emotional resilience, and develop practical strategies for safety and self-advocacy. Therapy is a confidential and supportive space to regain a sense of control, heal from trauma, and rebuild trust in yourself and your relationships.

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.

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.

Worcester is one of New England's most diverse cities and home to a cluster of colleges and universities — including Clark University, College of the Holy Cross, Worcester Polytechnic Institute, and UMass Chan Medical School — that together generate significant student mental health demand and a well-developed clinical training ecosystem. The city's large Latino, Vietnamese, and African American populations create consistent demand for culturally affirming and multilingual therapists, and Worcester has been an important destination for refugee resettlement from Southeast Asia, sub-Saharan Africa, and Central America. UMass Memorial Medical Center provides major institutional mental health resources, while the city's university ecosystem supplies important clinical training. Worcester's working-class character and lower cost of living relative to Boston make private therapy more financially accessible, though therapist density remains lower than in the Boston metro.
