Try to get her to seek counseling. She might need some time to sort out everything that happened in her life. In the meantime, just show her love.

Can I have a police officer help me move my girlfriend out of her abusive and violent mother's house?

The police could probably investigate the situation but can not force your girlfriend out if she doesn't want to leave,she might believe that there are reasons her mother is abusive. if you can find proof that the mother is abusive the police could press charges. if your girlfriend agrees to move out then the police can help her. you will also be able to help her by suggesting she see a counsellor or therapist depending if it has affected her emotionally. you also will need to be supportive towards her because she could think that if her own mother doesn't show love nobody will. you need to show that she can trust you.

Is constant affection abusive?

If this is literally constant affection, then it counts as an obsession. Obsession towards a person can very easily lead to abuse.This begins at the point that the target of the affection is hindered by it. Just check: Do you receive more affection than you want? Is the affection enforced on you? If yes, it's abuse. Affection is one thing - and compulsive acts (the outcome of obsession) an entirely different issue. Obsessive jealousy, confinement, lack of respect for your boundaries, needs, and emotions, isolating you from your support network and social milieu - these are all abusive behaviors but they have nothing to do with affection!
