Survivors of Domestic Violence

1231650259Complex, devastating effects…

At Safe Harbor Healing Center, we specialize in understanding and treating the traumatic effects of surviving domestic violence and narcissistic abuse.

Domestic violence encompasses a range of abusive behaviors that occur within intimate relationships or family dynamics. It involves a pattern of power and control exerted by one person over another, often resulting in physical, emotional, sexual, or financial harm.

Narcissistic abuse refers to the tactics used by individuals with narcissistic traits to manipulate, exploit, and demean their partners or family members. It can include emotional manipulation, gaslighting, isolation, financial control, and other forms of psychological harm.

Survivors often experience deep emotional wounds and may struggle with self-worth, trust, and boundary setting.

Our therapists have expertise in trauma-informed care and use evidence-based approaches to address your unique challenges so that you can reclaim your life.

CBT helps survivors identify and challenge negative thought patterns and beliefs that may have developed from the abuse. It supports the development of healthier coping strategies and promotes positive behavioral changes.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)…

DBT enhances emotional regulation, interpersonal effectiveness, distress tolerance, and mindfulness skills. It is particularly beneficial for survivors who struggle with emotional dysregulation and self-destructive behaviors.

Trauma-Focused Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT)…

TF-CBT is a specialized approach that addresses trauma-related symptoms and helps survivors process their experiences in a safe and supportive environment. It combines cognitive-behavioral techniques with trauma-focused interventions.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)…

EMDR is an evidence-based therapy that facilitates the processing and resolution of traumatic memories. It can be particularly helpful in addressing the distressing and intrusive memories associated with domestic violence and narcissistic abuse.
