Domestic Abuse
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.

Domestic Abuse
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.

Domestic Abuse
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.

Domestic Abuse
Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed therapy for individuals who have experienced domestic abuse, intimate partner violence, emotional abuse, coercive control, or the lasting psychological effects of unsafe or harmful relationships. Survivors of domestic violence often experience trauma responses such as anxiety, hypervigilance, depression, shame, fear, emotional numbness, difficulty trusting others, and feeling disconnected from themselves and others.
Brad takes a holistic, trauma-focused approach to healing from domestic abuse, helping clients safely process their experiences and begin rebuilding a sense of stability, self-worth, and emotional safety. Therapy provides a confidential, supportive environment where clients can explore their experiences at their own pace without judgment, pressure, or fear.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, emotional regulation strategies, and holistic therapeutic approaches to help clients process traumatic memories, reduce emotional distress, and restore a sense of control and grounding. Treatment focuses on supporting nervous system regulation, rebuilding self-trust, and helping clients move out of survival-based patterns into healthier, more empowered ways of living.
Healing from domestic abuse often involves more than talk therapy alone. When trauma is deeply embedded, it can affect emotional regulation, relationships, decision-making, and physical well-being. Brad’s approach focuses on addressing the root impact of trauma so clients can experience meaningful, lasting recovery rather than short-term coping.
Therapy is collaborative and individualized, supporting each client’s unique needs, safety considerations, and healing goals. The process often includes strengthening boundaries, improving emotional resilience, rebuilding identity, and restoring the ability to feel safe in relationships again.
Healing and recovery are possible. With the right support, survivors of domestic abuse can move beyond the effects of trauma, reclaim their sense of self, and build a life grounded in safety, strength, and emotional freedom.
