Domestic Abuse
Sabina Mauro
Psychologist, PsyD
Domestic violence can affect far more than a person's immediate sense of safety. Whether the abuse was physical, emotional, psychological, or controlling, its effects may continue to influence how you view yourself, make decisions, and navigate relationships long after the experience has ended. My approach focuses on helping survivors understand trauma-related responses, including hypervigilance, self-doubt, guilt, and difficulty trusting others or themselves. Through individualized, trauma-informed treatment, we explore the connection between past experiences and present-day challenges while working to restore confidence, strengthen boundaries, and rebuild a sense of emotional safety. Healing does not follow a straight path, and it does not require you to have all the answers. Together, we work toward helping you reclaim your voice, your choices, and your sense of self.

Domestic Abuse
Dr. Bridget Williams
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Love does not hurt. A simple statement for a complex issue. I began my clinical career working with individuals who experienced and survived DV or IPV. It can be challenging to even label your relationships as abuse due to the ways your abuser has conditioned you to think or perceive the fights. You may believe if you did or didn't do something, it wouldn't have happened. Together we can explore ways to get your safe, decide how you want to proceed in your relationship, and rebuild the parts of you that have be damaged or wounded by the abuse.

Domestic Abuse
Dr. Allison Williams
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I provide virtual services for those who have suffered atrocities that they didn't deserve. I've primarily provided services to female-identifying survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault, but have some experience providing services to male-identifying survivors as well. I am also familiar with legal settings (experience providing support in criminal and civil court as a victim advocate) and with emergency and transitional housing.

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.
