Interpersonal violence takes many forms: domestic violence, sexual assault, emotional abuse, coercive control, stalking, and financial abuse are all forms of interpersonal violence that can have profound and lasting effects on mental health, identity, and the ability to feel safe in relationships.

Many people don't immediately recognize what they experienced as abuse. Coercive control can be subtle. Emotional abuse can be easy to minimize. And a lifetime of being told that your perceptions aren't accurate can make it genuinely difficult to trust your own experience. If you're not sure whether what happened to you counts, it counts.

At The Meridian, our therapists work with survivors of interpersonal and domestic violence using trauma-informed, evidence-based approaches including EMDR, DBT, psycho-education, somatic therapy, and attachment-based care. We understand that the effects of abuse don't end when the relationship does. We are equipped to support clients through every stage of healing, from early safety and stabilization to deeper trauma processing and rebuilding a life beyond survival.
