Counseling
We want to help you and your children navigate the emotional toll of sexual violence and domestic assault.
The Abbie therapists specialize in all forms of trauma, grief, and loss, providing unique expertise in the implications and additional complexities that surviving domestic or sexual violence can add to someone’s mental health needs. Our therapists are qualified to treat many mental health diagnoses, most frequently treating PTSD, acute stress disorder, anxiety and depressive disorders, bi-polar disorders, and personality disorders. The theoretical foundations and frameworks used in Abbie mental health services are attachment, psychodynamic, trauma-informed, strength-based/empowerment, family systems, CBT and DBT. EMDR is available. Please contact us if you have any questions.
