Domestic Abuse or Violence
Dr Aneliya Gonsard
Psychologist, DClinPscy, MSc, BA
I have worked with a number of people who have sought support because of being in an abusive relationship. In my clinical experience, at least, there is often a struggle between the part of the person that knows they are being victimised, and another part that finds it very difficult to leave and imagine different possibilities (being alone; or being in an overall caring and supportive relationship). Domestic abuse also takes place between family members, who are not in an intimate relationship (for example parents towards their children, and they other way around).
Please get in touch, if you think you are or have been in any way part of an abusive or violent family dynamic, and would like to think about this with a mental health professional.

John Castleford
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, mARCHTI
It's unlikely any therapist can stop others from being abusive or violent. But I can help you develop effective strategies for re-building your sense of self-worth, which may have plummeted. I can help you defuse potentially threatening situations, for example, suggesting phrases that can't be turned against you; developing inner resilience and strategies to get you away from abusive, violent or toxic situations. I can also help signpost you to specialist support agencies. You may feel alone but you most certainly are not. And if you have extricated yourself and feel guilty, I can also offer help with that.

Benjamin Marr
Counsellor/Therapist, BA MA Relational Psychotherapist/ Birkbeck College - Psychodynamic Counsellor
In all cases domestic violence and other forms of abuse have traumatic as well as physical effects on both the client and those closest to them. To effectively help, my relational psychotherapy service is always used in a professional and confidential manner. There are a number of possible instances when couples’ therapy might not help those in a relationship with domestic violence. It may not be healthy, or productive to work on a relationship with an abusive partner.
I believe that relational psychotherapy can be helpful in treating the effects of domestic abuse. Domestic violence can have the capacity to leave lasting physical and mental effects. My relational psychotherapeutic support will be able to assist clients work through mental health issues which could be caused by domestic abuse.
Relational psychotherapy for domestic abuse has the capacity to be positively effective when each party of the relationship seeks therapy separately.
