CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
​
"Dominique has been a valuable speaker at the San Diego DV Council’s “DV Essentials” trainings for professionals in San Diego County. His presentation gives insight into the dynamics and healing process of a DV offender and gives hope that offenders can break the cycle of abuse.”
​
Terra Marroquin,
DV Council Training Division lead

​
"I attended the Domestic Violence Essentials Training last week in San Diego that you spoke at. The funny thing is I was actually sent to that training by accident because our Executive Director thought it was an advanced training. I was initially a little disappointed because I’ve previously taken the 40-hour DV certification through the State and I now run our own state certification training at our agency for DV, so the info being presented was repetitive of what I have previously learned.
​
However, my disappointment quickly shifted to excitement and inspiration when you spoke. I just wanted to reach out and tell you how much of an impact you made on me that day. The way you genuinely opened up and shared your story really inspired me and completely softened my heart. I wrote down many of the points you made and I am actually very excited to begin utilizing the info learned from you to help offenders who come to our agency in the future."

Rachel Leal
MA Director of Advocacy Services/Therapist II
"I thoroughly enjoyed my time getting to know Dominique Waltower, and his passion for Domestic Violence Advocacy. His own personal story of his journey of healing and processing growing up in a violent home. Beyond that, he is an impressive inspirational speaker who is always positive in his views on how men’s social attitude towards women contribute to types of abuses. Dominique’s knowledge of Domestic Abuse and expertise in Victim’s Advocacy will be very beneficial to your organization."
