Children and Youth who are exposed to domestic violence and abuse are at serious risk for long-term physical and mental health problems. They experience psychological, emotional, and social damage that can dramatically affect their developmental growth. They might manifest difficulties in school and /or with friends or express their problems through disruptive behaviors and/or through somatic symptoms.
Therapy can address the trauma children and Youth experienced, helping them develop healthier relationships, become more resilient, and decrease behavioral issues, ultimately guiding them through a path of healing.
