Dr. Carolina Castanos, PhD, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, PHD, LMFT
Victims or perpetrators of domestic abuse/violence are stuck in an abusive dynamic which most likely began before this relationship (in the case of adults) and will determine future relationships (in the case of kids). I work with recognizing this dynamic and uncovering deeper wounds.

Melissa Kummer Dague
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Violence and abuse should never happen, but when they do, therapy can be a valuable tool in healing. I began my career at a domestic violence and sexual assault shelter, and am trained in evidence based trauma modalities like Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to best address the needs of those impacted by violence.

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.

Melinda Switzer - Beauty for Ashes Trauma Therapy and Treatment
Counselor/Therapist, Melinda Switzer, MA, LPC, NCC
I have four years of experience in treating Domestic Abuse and Violence. This is one of the worst things that our children are exposed to today, it leads to anxiety, fear, disassociation, depression, low self-esteem, and some in some cases violence to others. Most victims of Domestic Abuse or Violence have signs and symptoms of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Suicidality is common in children and adults who experience this.
