Counseling Services and 24 hour Crisis Hotline
The emotional and psychological scars from family violence often remain long after the physical wounds have healed. Fear, loyalty, love, anger, self-blame, betrayal, family pressures, financial insecurity and other emotions may cloud the victim's ability to move on to the next phase in their lives with or without the abuser. Domestic Violence Counselors help them move from "victim" to "survivor" of family violence.
Our advocates conduct individual and group counseling as well as case management. Also on staff in the shelter is a children's coordinator who conducts individual and group counseling for our younger residents.
