Kristee Barker
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-S
I am a trauma specialist. Partner abuse and abuse from a parent are forms of complex trauma, and they leave deep marks on the nervous system, identity, and sense of safety. I work with you to rebuild safety — both internally and externally — while helping you understand the complex parts of yourself that had to adapt in order to survive. Using EMDR, IFS, and other trauma‑focused approaches, we gently untangle the fear, shame, confusion, and self‑blame that often linger long after the abuse ends. My goal is to help you feel grounded, empowered, and supported as you reclaim your voice, your boundaries, and your life.

Shay Malone
Pre-Licensed Professional, Ed.S., Resident in Counseling
The dynamics of domestic abuse are predictable, whether it occurs in a family setting or with an intimate partner. But the experience of being in a domestic violence relationship FEELS very unpredictable and often terrifying. I work with clients to help them understand what's happening and to help them resolve the issues.
