Domestic Abuse or Violence
Elisha S Lee
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Our counseling services for survivors of domestic abuse or violence provide a compassionate, safe space to address the trauma and complex emotions arising from abusive relationships. Understanding that domestic abuse can take many forms—physical, emotional, sexual, financial, and psychological—we offer tailored support to empower individuals as they navigate their journey of healing and reclaim their lives.
Empowering Survival and Healing from Domestic Abuse
* Trauma-Informed Care: Drawing from trauma-informed approaches, our counseling services prioritize safety, choice, collaboration, trustworthiness, and empowerment, acknowledging the profound impact of trauma on an individual's life and facilitating a path toward recovery.
* Safety Planning: We assist clients in developing comprehensive safety plans, whether they are preparing to leave an abusive situation, in the process of leaving, or have already left. This planning addresses immediate safety, legal protections, financial security, and long-term independence.
* Emotional and Psychological Support: Our counseling provides a supportive environment to process emotions such as fear, guilt, shame, anger, and grief, while also working to rebuild self-esteem, confidence, and a sense of self-worth that has been eroded by abuse.
* Healing from Trauma: Through evidence-based therapeutic techniques, we assist clients in processing and healing from the trauma of abuse, reducing symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, and depression.
* Rebuilding Life Skills: The path to recovery includes rebuilding life skills that may have been lost or diminished due to abuse. We support clients in gaining independence, making their own decisions, and establishing a healthy, self-determined life.

Dr. Patricia Webbink
Psychologist, MA and PhD in Clinical Psychology
For many years, I have offered counseling for individuals, as well as for couples, groups and parents who have suffered from domestic abuse or violence. I also have worked actively with the
Washington, DC Rape Crisis Center and provided the original training for them. For many years, I have also worked with the Washington, DC Department of Crime Victims. I have specialized in helping people who have been victimized by crime, have been a pioneer in the field of women, rape and violence and has been quoted in numerous articles and books on these subjects. I testified at the rape council hearings in the 1970's and have been featured in a prime time TV series on rape.
In addition, I worked extensively with the DC Women’s Center, and have trained counselors for the DC Rape Crisis Center. I have also written an article for Victimology Magazine in the late 1970's. In addition, I was the Chair of the National Institute against Prejudice and Violence in Baltimore,
Maryland for many years. Please feel free to call for a consultation: 301-229-8000

Domestic Abuse or Violence
Leo Massey
Therapist, LMSW
For individuals who have experienced domestic abuse or violence, validation is a key component of treatment. I prioritize meeting clients where they are and focus on building a strong therapeutic relationship, which is crucial for successful treatment, especially for those who have endured consistently invalidating environments. Together, we determine the most effective approach, whether it's Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), DBT with Prolonged Exposure (DBT-PE), Exposure Therapy, or a combination of interventions. I look forward to working with you to achieve your therapeutic goals!
