Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In supporting individuals affected by domestic violence or intimate partner violence, I provide a safe and empathetic space for them to explore their experiences and emotions. Through therapy, we work together to address the impact of the abuse on their physical and emotional well-being, as well as their sense of safety and self-worth. I offer validation and support, helping survivors recognize that they are not alone and that the abuse is not their fault. Together, we develop safety plans and explore options for seeking support and resources, including shelters, legal assistance, and counseling services. Additionally, I help survivors process their trauma, rebuild their self-esteem, and establish boundaries in future relationships. My goal is to empower survivors to heal from the effects of domestic violence, regain control over their lives, and move forward with strength and resilience.

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.

Sushma Cheturvedula
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
I'd be there for someone dealing with domestic abuse, giving them a safe spot to open up about what's happening without any judgment. We'd talk about how the abuse affects them emotionally and how it messes with their confidence. I'd also help them figure out ways to stay safe and get support, like finding shelters or legal help if needed. The goal of therapy would be to help them see their own strengths, feel better about themselves, and get out of the abusive situation for good.
