Faithful Connections Christian Counseling LLC
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Experiencing domestic abuse or violence can leave lasting emotional, relational, and psychological wounds. At Faithful Connections Christian Counseling, we provide a compassionate, trauma-informed, and nonjudgmental space for individuals affected by domestic abuse, including emotional, verbal, psychological, physical, and controlling behaviors. Counseling focuses on helping clients process their experiences, rebuild self-worth, recognize unhealthy relationship patterns, establish healthy boundaries, develop coping skills, and regain a sense of safety, confidence, and personal control.
We recognize that leaving or changing an abusive situation can be complicated, and we meet each client where they are without judgment or pressure. Our goal is to support your healing while respecting your choices, circumstances, and individual pace. When appropriate, we can help clients identify supportive resources and develop strategies that promote safety and emotional well-being.
For clients who desire it, Christian faith can be incorporated into counseling through prayer, Scripture, and spiritual reflection, with an emphasis on dignity, hope, healing, and healthy relationships. You are not defined by what happened to you, and you do not have to face the journey toward healing alone.

Erik Stenglein
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LICSW
Specialties include domestic violence support, intimate partner violence, relationship trauma, safety planning, emotional recovery, and trauma-informed care for adults.
I work with adults 18+ who have experienced domestic or intimate partner violence. Many clients come to therapy feeling unsafe, isolated, or uncertain about how to navigate relationships and protect themselves. My approach is compassionate, trauma-informed, and empowering, helping clients process the impact of abuse, build emotional resilience, and develop practical strategies for safety and self-advocacy. Therapy is a confidential and supportive space to regain a sense of control, heal from trauma, and rebuild trust in yourself and your relationships.

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.
