Support for Domestic Abuse Survivors in Colorado

If you're navigating fear, control, or harm in a relationship, you shouldn't have to carry it alone or figure out your next step by yourself. Overcomers Counseling offers trauma-informed, confidential support for survivors of domestic abuse across Colorado Springs, Aurora, Fort Collins, and Pueblo, plus statewide teletherapy.

You Don't Have to Face This Alone

Abuse can leave you doubting your own experience, feeling isolated from friends or family, or unsure of what healthy support even looks like. None of what happened is your fault. Our therapists provide a safe, judgment-free space to process what you've experienced, at whatever pace feels right for you.

What Survivors Bring to Counseling

People come to counseling for support with processing fear, confusion, or trauma; rebuilding self-trust and confidence; navigating safety planning and next steps; healing from the emotional impact of control or manipulation; and reconnecting with a sense of identity outside the relationship. There is no timeline you need to follow, and no version of your story that's wrong to bring here.

How Our Therapists Help

Our providers use trauma-informed approaches, including EMDR and CBT, to help you process what happened and rebuild a sense of safety and self. For clients who want it, we also offer faith-integrated counseling that honors your spiritual needs during healing. If you are in immediate danger, please call 911, or reach the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233, available 24/7.

I really appreciate the fact that someone I had only talked with for an hour was willing to listen and to help me take on the weight of my world and to give me hope in getting my life back on the right path that I needed . Thanks

Serena Chalepah, LPCC
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Serena has not only knowledge, but compassion, understanding, guidance to push through whatever obstacles I have faced, and the advice needed to learn new traits or skills. I’ve definitely had a battle of finding a therapist I not only connect with, but someone I’m comfortable sharing some uncomfortable situations with to help move past. She’s been so very patient with me and my life’s ups and downs. I can’t thank her enough for being so genuine! Has been nothing but a great experience!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I have been with overcomers for years as a therapy patient and recently transfered from a different psychiatrist to Shannon Powell. She made the whole process so simple and seamless. I was honestly expecting things to be a lot more difficult but was pleasantly surprised. Thank you for making me feel so heard and understood! 10/10 stars!

Miranda Puente, LSW
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I feel like she listens to everything I have to say in a non-judgemental way. She remains nuetral and provide valid information as necessary and doesnt feed into my delusions, yet help me escape them step by step. When we are speaking i feel she is very attentive and engage in the conversation(s) at hand. I enjoy how relatable she can be on difficult topics. All I have to say about Miranda is GOAT.
