Free Domestic Violence Counseling in DC

Domestic violence can leave lasting emotional scars, but survivors do not have to face their healing journey alone. At The Women’s Center in Washington, D.C., we offer free crisis and long-term counseling to individuals who have experienced domestic abuse or sexual assault. Funded by the Mayor’s Office of Victim Services Justice Grants, these services ensure that survivors receive the care they need, regardless of their financial situation.

Understanding that healing looks different for everyone, The Women’s Center provides flexible therapeutic options tailored to each client’s needs. Those in immediate crisis can be seen right away for a one-time emergency session, while others can participate in long-term therapy with no limits on the number of sessions. Whether in-person or through virtual sessions, survivors can count on receiving compassionate, professional care at no cost.

With the guidance of our experienced therapists, survivors can work toward breaking cycles of abuse and regaining control over their lives. Research shows that therapy not only helps individuals heal emotionally but reduces the likelihood of experiencing future abuse by empowering survivors with knowledge and resilience tools.

To qualify for services, individuals must either be residents in Washington, D.C. or have experienced abuse or assault within the District. The abuse does not have to be recent—survivors from any stage of their journey are welcome. Sessions are available during regular business hours with limited evening availability, ensuring flexibility for those with busy schedules.

If you or someone you know has experienced domestic violence or sexual assault, survivor-centered care is available. Take the first step toward healing by reaching out to The Women’s Center. Call today at (202) 293-4580 to see if you qualify and schedule a session. Start your path to recovery in a safe, supportive environment with The Women’s Center. Our DC office is open from 9 AM to 5 PM, Monday through Friday.

If you need immediate support, contact the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-SAFE (7233) or text “START” to 88788. Help is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
