This component will assist in reducing trauma and stress-related complications as a result of the past or current emotional abuse. It will also help improve emotional and physical safeguards to avoid or confront emotional abuse, which should increase emotional intelligence, conscious of self and surrounding, and how to anticipate and confront different problems.

Addressing this in therapy can allow for increased self worth, understanding of the situation including why you might have been in the relationship, and understanding of your own attachment concerns.

Emotional abuse is an often hidden or hard to pinpoint type of abuse that may occur in our adult relationships, those with our parents growing up, or both. One definition of emotional abuse includes psychological (i.e. non-physical) behaviors such as threats, insults, constant monitoring or “checking in,” controlling, shaming, humiliation, intimidation, isolation or ignoring behaviors.
You may also be dealing with childhood emotional abuse which can be defined as, 'sustained, repetitive, inappropriate emotional response to the child’s experience of emotion and its accompanying expressive behavior’.
Healing involves speaking our truth, learning about connecting to our emotions, boundary setting, connecting to our bodies and beginning to create new ways of building loving safe relationships with ourselves and others. Depending upon your own history we may make use of variety of tools to heal, including somatic work, trauma work, journaling, boundary setting, inner child work, family systems work, art therapy, or many other paths that can lead to reclaiming your truth.
