Domestic Abuse or Violence
Alena Porter
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
I work with a lot of clients who are in or have left abusive situations and one of the most important things for the client to hear is that they weren't overreacting or misreading a situation. Treating domestic abuse and violence involves helping the client improve their self-esteem, self-confidence, self-worth, inner strength, and decision making skills.

Domestic Abuse or Violence
RGV Cross Over Counseling
Counselor/Therapist, ALC under supervision of Craig Boesch (AL), LPC (TX), M. ED.
Domestic abuse and violence have many forms, such as emotional, psychological, financial, and physical. A destructive, abusive environment does not get better, as it has a vicious cycle of the honeymoon stage, tensions mounting, and repeated abuse. If this destructive pattern is not broken, it might lead to death, as according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) the percentage of deaths from domestic abuse and violence is 1 in 5. If you are in an abusive and violent relationship, contact the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233 or if you need immediate help, call 911.

Domestic Abuse or Violence
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.
