Abuse can deeply impact self-worth, trust, safety, identity, and the ability to feel grounded in daily life. Therapy offers a supportive, trauma-informed space to process what happened, rebuild self-trust, strengthen boundaries, and move toward healing, safety, and empowerment.

Domestic Abuse
Sauna Therapy | A Boutique Mental Health Studio | Paige Swanson
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LPC
I started my counseling journey, by developing an all-woman's support group entitled, "Women in Leadership." I then began working in corporate America, until I decided to go back to school for counseling. My experience involves working in major hospitals to court-appointed therapy for individuals in the criminal justice system. In that experience, I became affiliated with trauma specializations including domestic violence, rape, homicide, addiction, and gang violence.

Domestic Abuse
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.

McAllen is the largest city in the Rio Grande Valley, a predominantly Spanish-speaking border region where the daily realities of life on the US-Mexico border—immigration, family separation, cross-border economic uncertainty, and the psychological stress of living in a highly scrutinized border community—shape the mental health landscape in ways that are unlike those of any other part of Texas. Spanish-language therapy is not merely preferred but essential in McAllen, and the demand for bilingual practitioners far outpaces supply in a region that is chronically underserved for mental health professionals per capita. The Rio Grande Valley ranks among the most underserved regions in the country for mental health care, and while health systems like DHR Health and South Texas Health System provide some behavioral health services, many residents go without needed support. Common therapy concerns include immigration-related anxiety and trauma, family separation stress, economic uncertainty, and the complex identity challenges of life in a bicultural, binational border community.
