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.

Libby Shaw
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, ATR-BC, LPAT, ACS
Whether domestic violence is something you witnessed, experienced in the past, or are currently living through, it plays a major role in your everyday life. From how you socialize with friends and family, your career or education, your internal view of yourself and your self worth, your inner world begins to revolve around navigating this extremely emotional, complicated, and scary situation. Having an "outsider", someone who is not connected to you or your family, can often times feel safer to process this with.
