Program Overview
Schroeder Counseling offers court-approved domestic violence classes online to California residents. You join live, interactive sessions with a certified DV intervention counselor. It tackles the root causes of domestic violence. It uses evidence-based education and behavioral accountability techniques that California courts recognize.
The curriculum builds on the Duluth Model and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). You explore the dynamics and cycle of domestic violence. You examine power and control patterns. You build healthy communication and relationship skills. You practice conflict de-escalation and safety planning. You work on personal accountability and respectful relationships. California judges, probation departments, and family courts require these core skills.
A California criminal court or family court may have mandated your domestic violence class. It may be part of a protective order, plea agreement, or probation condition. Either way, our program meets all court requirements. We offer flexible lengths: 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36, and 52-hour domestic violence education programs. Pick the one that matches your specific court order.
California residents get a professional certificate of completion the same day. It lists your name, program hours, session dates, and curriculum description. It also shows our certified counselor's credentials. This covers all documentation that California courts, the Department of Corrections, family court judges, and CPS agencies require. We also send verification straight to your probation officer on request.
Most referrals to our California program come from courts such as Los Angeles County Superior Court, Orange County Superior Court, and Alameda County Superior Court. They also come from every other criminal, family, and municipal court in the state. It does not matter where your case is heard in California. Our curriculum and documentation meet the same statewide standard.
We regularly enroll clients from Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego, Sacramento, and San Jose, spanning Los Angeles County, San Francisco County, San Diego County, and Sacramento County, and every other community in California. Every session runs live over Zoom. So your city and how rural your county is do not affect your access or how fast you get your certificate.
