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
Ruth Ellerbusch
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, EMDRII
Anger management is high brain functioning. Violence is instinct brain action. EMDR helps both be where you want them.
Trauma is often the root of acting out with violence, and EMDR is the solution for resolving trauma.

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.
7 Years Experience

Cleveland carries a post-industrial identity with deep civic pride, and the mental health effects of decades of economic decline — job loss, population contraction, and community stress — are themes many local therapists engage with regularly. The city is home to the Cleveland Clinic, one of the world's premier medical institutions, which maintains extensive psychiatric and behavioral health services alongside a large private practice community concentrated in Cleveland Heights, Shaker Heights, and Lakewood. Cleveland's large Black community and history of racial inequity drive demand for culturally affirming therapists who work with racial trauma and social justice themes. University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center provides additional institutional mental health resources in a city with a well-established independent practice community.
