Domestic Abuse or Violence

Melanie Mosbarger

Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, CTTS
My work with victims of domestic violence has helped me gain the knowledge of resources that I can provide you, but also the education. Did you know there is a cycle to domestic violence, did you know you're not the only one that wants to leave, but doesn't know how to or feels scared to? You are not alone and I can provide you with tools and resources to remind you of that.

Fairfax, Virginia therapist: Rachel Ann Dine, licensed professional counselor
Domestic Abuse or Violence

Rachel Ann Dine

Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC, LPC
The cycle of domestic violence is complex and feels like a blur. From feeling connected and in a state of calm (i.e. the honeymoon stage) to feeling like you have to walk on eggshells around your partner for fear of upsetting them (tension building) to then experiencing a violent physical or verbal altercation that seemingly comes out of nowhere (explosion), this cycle can feel confusing, disheartening, and near impossible to leave. Maybe you hold onto the "good" you see in your partner, hoping they will finally change. I get it. And I offer a very compassionate understanding approach to how this process can play out. Loss of identity and knowing who you are is so common in unhealthy, abusive relationships. Often times, you've had to live in a way that suppresses your emotions because you don't want to arbitrarily upset your partner. Feeling like a shell of who you once were is also common and I help women navigate through this complex process, recreate a strong identity, RECLAIM your identity, and feel more confident. Contrary to what others (or your partner) may tell you, abuse is NOT your fault and everyone, including you, is SO worthy of being treated with respect. If you have been looking for a provider to help you through this process, please reach out. I offer a down to earth, validating approach and have years of experience understanding the nuances of abusive relationships as well as helping survivors heal.
