Domestic Violence Intervention Treatment

YouByUS Professional Services is a Washington state Domestic Violence Intervention Treatment (DVIT) certified agency that offers assessments and treatment and is designed for both court-ordered and self-referred participants. This 6-12 month program meets weekly for 90 minutes via Zoom, providing a supportive environment for individuals to address their beliefs and behaviors that have led to relationship challenges and resulted in Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) or Domestic Violence.

The primary goal of DVIT is to increase victim safety, promote accountability of those accused of domestic violence and assist in creating lasting behavioral change by helping participants:

• Recognize their patterns of power and control in intimate relationships.

• Take full responsibility for their abusive behaviors without blame-shifting, minimizing, or justification.

• Develop non-violent, respectful, and equitable relationship skills.

• Address the belief systems and entitlement attitudes that drive abusive behaviors.

• Commit to creating safety for their intimate partners, children, and future relationships.

Participants enrolled with YouByUs Professional Services will engage in lessons that cover the below listed topics as directed by the Washington State Domestic Violence Intervention Treatment program:

• Behavioral & Cognitive Change: Identifying types of abuse, defense mechanisms, cognitive distortions, and indicators of violence to address criminogenic needs and personal motivations.

• Accountability & Legal Obligations: Developing personal accountability, understanding belief systems, and fulfilling financial and legal obligations.

• Healthy Relationships & Empathy: Building respectful relationships, understanding the impact of domestic violence on children, exploring relationship history, and developing empathy.

• Self-Regulation & Support: Establishing healthy self-care practices and building positive community support systems.

                                       

Our goal is to help you create a healthier and safer future for yourself and your relationships.
