Domestic Abuse or Violence
Center for Specialized Psychology
Psychologist, Psy.D., LCSW, LPC,
Our therapists here at CSP are trained in recognizing, understanding, and treating survivors of domestic abuse. Examples of treatment approaches we specialize in to help domestic violence survivors process and heal from past abusive relationships include: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Person Centered Therapy (PCT), Trauma Focused – Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Prolonged Exposure Therapy (PE). Key aspects of our treatment for domestic violence survivors includes assisting our clients in overcoming their trauma through psycho-education, self-empowerment, and developing healthy and appropriate coping skills for emotional and behavioral regulation. We provide education on the cycle of violence, identifying warning signs of abusive partners, and recognizing how domestic abuse may have impacted and distorted their perception of self and others. Our ultimate goal for our clients who have endured domestic abuse involves finding self-empowerment, strength and stability to live the life they are seeking.

Dr. John E. N. Daniel
Marriage and Family Therapist, EdD; EdS; MA; MA; LCMFT#0404011018; BCCLC#0131
I have examined domestic violence and marital distress from a wider perspective that encapsulates not only interventions at the therapeutic level, but also broad-based interventions aimed at a revision that includes many contemporary multicultural issues. I believe that there are numerous risk factors that serve as perpetrators of aggression in couple relationships including: (a) relationship distress, (b) the escalation of negative behavioral couple communication, (c) maladaptive behavioral responses in conflict situations, (d) deficits in couple conflict resolution skills, (e) aberrant cognitive functioning leading to heightened risk factors and (f) negative multicultural influences based on embedded warped beliefs, values and cultural norms (Gurman et al., 2015).

Gui Mansilla
Registered Psychotherapist, Lawyer (Arg) M.Div (USA) Reg. Psychotherapist (CA) Coach (Ca)
From my earliest years, a deep-seated commitment to justice took root in me, sparked by the passion of a Harvard-educated lawyer portrayed by Barry Newman in the television series Petrocelli. This attorney, forsaking the allure of Wall Street wealth, dedicated himself to serving the voiceless and underserved, often for a symbolic one-dollar fee. This childhood inspiration propelled me to pursue a legal career at the University of Buenos Aires to become a criminal lawyer at the age of 22. Although my professional journey led me through roles as an actor and ordained minister, culminating in my current roles as a psychotherapist and coach, I never strayed from my passion to protect the innocent and champion justice whenever needed.
Over the last few decades, I have intentionally immersed myself in the realm of domestic violence and abuse, driven by a conviction that, while understanding the roots of such actions in the trauma and pain of the perpetrators, we must stand firm to halt the cycle of violence and protect the victims. Though navigating this work while victims are still ensnared within the power dynamics of abuse is delicate and perilous, it brings extraordinary fulfillment to assist someone in breaking free. In rare cases, I've had the privilege of aiding abusers in turning their lives around.
Given my background as a criminal lawyer, minister, and specialized psychotherapist, it is my profound honour to support those in need, guiding them to break free from the grips of abuse and use their traumatic experiences as a catapult toward a life of fulfillment, freedom, and empowerment. The journey from victimization to liberation is undoubtedly treacherous and delicate, yet it stands as one of the most fulfilling paths one can take when breaking free from any form of abuse or violence.
Please don't hesitate to reach out, knowing that I stand ready to be in your corner, offering suggestions and guidance on how to avoid further harm and, ultimately, emerge free from the shackles of abuse or violence.

Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Domestic abuse often creates very painful symptoms and is something for which I use a therapy called Prolonged Exposure (PE). In this therapy, we will revisit traumatic situations, process painful emotions, and change unhelpful beliefs about yourself and the world around you as a result of your trauma. People are often amazed at how quickly this treatment can work and by the very meaningful change that can result. For these reasons, this is one of my favorite treatments to provide.

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.

Susanne R Mealer
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Whether violence and/or domestic abuse has happened/is happening to you or you witnessed it, it can severely affect you. There is a lot of misconceptions about these occurrences. This is trauma, no matter how you slice it! Sometimes people don't even recognize that they are in an unhealthy relationship or they don't view a specific situation or incident as abuse or violence has become the norm.

God didn't call a woman to be under the foot of a man. Christianity calls for us to experience relationships that are kind and loving, and that a man should love his spouse as "Christ loves the church."
