Domestic Abuse or Violence
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.

Domestic Abuse or Violence
Pamela Angel
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
I am passionate about guiding individuals from a place of fear, confusion, and broken self-worth to a life of safety, autonomy, and empowerment.
Domestic violence isn’t just physical; it is a profound trauma that erodes identity, often causing long-term anxiety, depression, and PTSD. My focus is on providing a secure, non-judgmental space where survivors can break free from the trauma bond, understand the cycle of abuse, and rebuild their confidence.

Domestic Abuse or Violence
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.
