Domestic Abuse
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.

Domestic Abuse
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.

Domestic Abuse
Susan Spicer
Psychologist, PhD
As a licensed psychologist specializing in treating victims of domestic violence, I understand the profound and lasting impact that trauma of this nature can have on an individual's life. These experiences can become deeply ingrained in both the mind and body, affecting how you navigate relationships, approach parenting, and engage in daily living. The trauma from domestic abuse and domestic violence can erode self-esteem and result in a constant state of hypervigilance, leaving you feeling anxious and jumpy, as if you are constantly walking on eggshells.
My approach to helping you heal from domestic abuse and domestic violence involves the use of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, which has proven effective in treating trauma associated with such experiences. Through EMDR, we can work together to facilitate the recovery process, increase resilience, establish healthy boundaries, and enhance coping skills. My goal is to empower you to build the resilience needed to manage difficult a relationship, or find the strength to leave it, ultimately facilitating healing and fostering a path toward a healthier, more fulfilling life.
