My bet would be that your child's emotional/behavioral problems are much more convoluted than having witnessed your abuse up til the time she was 2. Mind you that during that period she had no concept of right from wrong so her basic exposure was to the stress that situation causes in a home. Some of that stress may never have been alleviated. Afterall, she has lived her entire life with the abusive parent. The type of therapy that usually benefits kids like your girlie is a behavioral type possibly even residential if no one around her has their shit together enough to provide her with the structure and emotional support she needs. I highly recommend that you all seek family counseling, even if just a few sessions, in order to develop a plan of action so that you can offer your daughter the type of surroundings that will afford her an opportunity to work through her problems.
