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.

Christina Song
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT-S
I work with survivors of domestic violence from a trauma-informed, non-blaming, and empowerment-focused perspective. Abuse can take many forms—emotional, psychological, physical, sexual, financial, or coercive control—and its impact often extends far beyond the relationship itself. In therapy, we move at your pace, centering safety, consent, and your right to make decisions about your own life.
Our work may include processing trauma, rebuilding a sense of self and agency, addressing shame or self-doubt, and strengthening boundaries and support systems. I am attentive to the complex realities survivors face, including ongoing contact with an abusive partner, systemic barriers, and the ways trauma can shape attachment and self-trust. Therapy is not about forcing timelines or “fixing” you—it’s about creating space for healing, resilience, and reconnection in ways that feel safe, grounded, and sustainable.

MindOverHealing Therapies
Hypnotherapist, CHt
Domestic abuse involves a pattern of controlling and coercive behaviors in intimate relationships. It can be physical, emotional, psychological, sexual, or financial. The trauma from such experiences can lead to a range of mental health issues, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. Hypnotherapy allows individuals to access and process traumatic memories in a safe and controlled environment. By guiding clients into a relaxed state, hypnotherapists help them confront and release the emotional pain associated with their experiences.
