Kieri Olmstead
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Leaving is complicated. Healing is complicated. And finding a therapist who won't treat you like a fragile victim while also truly understanding the complexity of abusive dynamics is harder than it should be. At Simple Empathy I bring a direct, informed and deeply respectful approach to survivors of domestic abuse and violence. We'll work through trauma, rebuild your sense of self, and examine the patterns — in relationships, in family systems, in the stories you inherited — that made you vulnerable in the first place. You are not broken. You are someone who survived, and that's exactly where we start.

Domestic abuse and violence overwhelm anyone's normal ability to cope. It can be devastating to leave an abusive relationship and leave you feeling lost. At Aspire Counseling, we offer at least three different types of very effective trauma treatments. We can help you process what you've gone through, get unstuck and find a way to move forward feeling safe again.

Phil McClelland
Counselor/Therapist, MDIV, MA, LPCC-S, NCC, ACS
If you’re in a relationship where you feel controlled, afraid, or constantly on edge, you’re not alone.
Abuse isn’t always physical. It can include emotional pressure, manipulation, isolation, or feeling like you have to walk on eggshells to keep the peace.
You might feel confused, stuck, or unsure of what’s normal anymore.
Therapy offers a place to sort through what’s happening at your pace, without judgment or pressure to make decisions before you’re ready.
My approach is steady and supportive. We focus on helping you regain clarity, strengthen your sense of self, and make choices that increase your safety and stability.
This is not about forcing you to leave or telling you what to do. It’s about helping you see clearly and take your next step with support.
