Stop Intimate Partner Violence
Intimate Partner Violence does not start with the first hit, the violent verbal interaction, or even the first aggressive stare.
Physical and verbal abuses are the fruits of a tree that is often rooted in addiction, childhood trauma, socio-economic circumstances, and environmental pressure. Trying to fix the outward behavior without fixing the root is like continuing to put gas in a car that has a gas leak. If you want a result, you have to fix the leak. For substantial and sustained impact in the lives of those impacted by Intimate Partner Violence, we must fix the root. That is what we do at CBAM.
At CBAM, Center for Behavior and Addiction Management, we teach clients, who we call partners, to go to the ROOT of the behavior. We train Addictions Counselors, Clinical Supervision for Addiction Professionals, Domestic Violence Intervention training, and Relationship Coaches. We work with these groups in conjunction with working directly with clients seeking individual or court-mandated assistance.

Children often learn how to behave and interact at a young age. Therefore, exposure to domestic violence increases the chances of a child becoming involved in an abusive or violent relationship as an adult.
