Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Virginia

My sister bought a house with her boyfriend. He has now begun drinking heavily and she needs to terminate the situation. He refuses to leave the property, which is fine. She is willing to leave and give up any equity. How can she remove her name from the loan and not be held responsible for the debt once she leaves the property? There are not married.
