Domestic Abuse or Violence
Melinda Switzer - Beauty for Ashes Trauma Therapy and Treatment
Counselor/Therapist, Melinda Switzer, MA, LPC, NCC
I have four years of experience in treating Domestic Abuse and Violence. This is one of the worst things that our children are exposed to today, it leads to anxiety, fear, disassociation, depression, low self-esteem, and some in some cases violence to others. Most victims of Domestic Abuse or Violence have signs and symptoms of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Suicidality is common in children and adults who experience this.

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.
