Christina Andino
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
As a therapist specializing in domestic abuse and violence therapy, I am deeply committed to providing a safe and supportive environment for individuals who have experienced the profound impact of such traumatic situations. My role is to offer compassionate guidance and empower clients to navigate the complex emotions, challenges, and aftermath associated with domestic abuse.
In our therapeutic sessions, we work collaboratively to address the immediate safety concerns and create a personalized plan tailored to the unique needs of each individual. Together, we explore the dynamics of abuse, facilitate healing from both physical and emotional wounds, and develop coping strategies to rebuild a sense of security and self-worth.
I strive to empower survivors to regain control over their lives by assisting in the identification and establishment of healthy boundaries, fostering self-esteem, and promoting resilience. Through a trauma-informed approach, I aim to provide a pathway towards healing, recovery, and the restoration of a life free from the shackles of domestic abuse. My commitment is to support, validate, and guide individuals towards a brighter and more empowered future.

Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Domestic abuse often creates very painful symptoms and is something for which I use a therapy called Prolonged Exposure (PE). In this therapy, we will revisit traumatic situations, process painful emotions, and change unhelpful beliefs about yourself and the world around you as a result of your trauma. People are often amazed at how quickly this treatment can work and by the very meaningful change that can result. For these reasons, this is one of my favorite treatments to provide.
