Domestic and Other Violence Emergencies (DOVE)

If you are a survivor of domestic violence or sexual assault, you are not alone.

DOVE licensed social workers are here to support survivors and to provide survivors with an environment that is empowering and free from judgment.

It is not unusual for survivors and their loved ones to feel unable to return to life as they knew it before the violence. Trauma-related disturbances can linger for weeks, months, or years, and can include both physical and emotional symptoms, such as headaches, inability to focus, nightmares, flashbacks, difficulties with relationships, shame, and anger, among others.

At DOVE, we specialize in supporting survivors who experience trauma-related symptoms and our practice is affirming and justice-oriented. 

At this time, our counseling and therapy services are offered on a short-term basis, for approximately eight to 12 weeks.

All DOVE services are confidential, within the confines of the law, and free of charge.
