Emotional Abuse
Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with adults who have been in relationships where their feelings, needs, or perceptions were dismissed, minimized, or used against them. Emotional abuse can be subtle and hard to name, especially when the relationship also included care, love, or periods of calm. You might relate to feeling confused about what was “real,” wondering if you were too sensitive or overreacting, replaying conversations in your head, or changing your behavior to avoid criticism, withdrawal, or the silent treatment. For many people, these patterns started young, in families where you had to stay tuned in to other people’s moods, keep the peace, or be “easy” so things didn’t get worse. Experiences like this can leave a long imprint: second‑guessing yourself, feeling responsible for other people’s emotions, bracing for criticism even when nothing is wrong, or working hard to stay acceptable so conflict doesn’t escalate. You may find yourself feeling small in relationships, even when you are competent and grounded in other areas of your life. Over time, these patterns can shape your sense of self, your nervous system, and what you believe you are allowed to expect from others. In our work together, we make space for what you went through and how it lives in your body and relationships now, and we explore what it means to move forward with more clarity, self‑trust, and choice.

Emotional Abuse
Sherry Murray
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
It's just words, you think, but why do they hurt so badly? How is this person making me feel so awful about myself? What is wrong with me? We often think that physical abuse is the worst, but studies are showing that emotional abuse is actually harder to define, deal with, and heal from. You need a safe place to figure out what exactly is happening and how to protect yourself.

Emotional Abuse
Dr. Rae Mazzei
Psychologist, PsyD
I specialize in helping adolescents and adults heal from the effects of emotional abuse and unhealthy relationship dynamics. Emotional abuse can leave lasting impacts on self-esteem, trust, emotional well-being, and one's sense of safety and identity. Individuals may struggle with anxiety, depression, self-doubt, people-pleasing, difficulty setting boundaries, or challenges in future relationships. Using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), EMDR, and trauma-informed care, I help clients process painful experiences, rebuild self-confidence, develop healthy boundaries, and foster resilience. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive environment where clients can heal, regain their sense of self, and move forward with greater strength and confidence.

Emotional Abuse
Danielle Thurman (Roots and Wings Family Therapy)
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Emotional abuse leaves invisible wounds that can be just as devastating as physical trauma. If you've experienced manipulation, gaslighting, constant criticism, or controlling behavior, you may struggle with self-doubt, anxiety, or feeling disconnected from your own reality. You deserve validation that what you experienced was real and that its impact on your life matters.
In our therapeutic work together, I provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your experiences at your own pace. We'll work to rebuild your sense of self-worth, establish healthy boundaries, and develop tools to recognize unhealthy relationship patterns. Through evidence-based approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy and trauma-informed care, we'll address the complex effects of emotional abuse—from intrusive thoughts and hypervigilance to difficulties trusting yourself and others.
Recovery is possible. Many survivors of emotional abuse rediscover their authentic selves, build fulfilling relationships, and reclaim their power. Whether you're still in a difficult situation, recently left, or dealing with long-term effects from past abuse, I'm here to support you in breaking free from the cycle and creating the life you deserve. Your experiences are valid, your healing matters, and you don't have to navigate this journey alone.

Amy Faragher
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC, NCC
Emotional abuse is often complex as it occurs over several instances as opposed to a single incident. Emotional abuse doesn't leave visible scars, but the damage it does is deep and real.

Emotional Abuse
Jeni Gutke
Licensed Professional Counselor, MC, LPC
Trauma of all kinds change how we operate and how we feel powerful, responsible, valuable, and safe in our bodies, in relationships and our world. When we have emotional abuse, that changes how we operate and approach relationships and how we feel about ourselves. We offer trauma intervention that can help clear the trauma from the body and reroute the mind to rewire those negative cognitions and help bring in adaptive thoughts and truths about ourselves.

Emotional Abuse
Nancy Burns
Counselor/Therapist, JD, LMHC, LPC, MA, EMDR Certified
When we are trapped inside toxic relationship cycles, we often come to a point where we feel like there is no way out—especially if we keep on recreating the same toxic patterns with the people around us. The first step to breaking free is to understand that you have the power to get out and save yourself from destructive patterns so you can live your life in the healthiest, most authentic way possible. It is never too late to ask for help, and my therapy approach involves giving you the guidance and support you need to identify these toxic relationships in your life so you can start building healthy, mindful connections. We will work together to discover how you can break the cycle, rework, and nurture your relationships by identifying the root cause of these unhealthy patterns. This could involve pinpointing traumatic childhood experiences like neglectful or abusive behaviors from emotionally immature or narcissistic parents and other authority figures in your life. Once you’ve recognized where these dysfunctional patterns come from, we will work toward getting rid of harmful belief systems like constant self-blaming or feeling as if you are a bad person, so you can begin to prioritize your well-being. We can then work on rebuilding your self-esteem, setting your emotional and mental boundaries, and learning how to better regulate your emotions. Breaking away from these patterns will eventually give you the peace of mind you need to finally start loving yourself so that you feel worthy of good treatment. That is the first step in creating and nurturing positive relationships while living a life that’s free from emotional pain and trauma-induced vicious cycles. - - - "There is no normal life that is free of pain. The very wrestling with our problems provides the impetus for growth." Fred Rogers

Emotional Abuse
Nancy Hayes-Gary, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist, MD , Psy.D.
Probably emotional neglect or the lack of adequately nurturing is the least recognized and validated for of developmental or marital abuse. Looking at attachment style can often help you to understand how this neglect occurred and what you need to heal. Maybe negative thoughts intrude on your thought process. There are many approaches that work for this, depending upon your needs.

Emotional Abuse
Philadelphia Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PsyD
Developing a close relationship with someone who displays narcissistic tendencies can result in trauma and pain. If you believe you have experienced narcissistic abuse from a parent, a partner, a friend, or another close entity, you may have noticed daily or near-daily dread, brain fog, panic, helplessness, and powerlessness. You may feel shame, self-doubt, and confusion alongside a tendency to blame yourself for all the ways this relationship feels wrong. You may feel that you’ve lost touch with your former confidence and vitality, as though both you and your world have shrunk under the shadow of this relationship. You may continue to feel deep longing and love for a person you know has harmed you.
At PCT, we are here to validate and witness your journey to healing. We will work with you to address the acute emotional and somatic symptoms of narcissistic abuse no matter where you are in your healing process. We will cultivate compassion for all the parts of you that have emerged throughout this struggle. We’ll walk with you as you gather the pieces of yourself and put them back together. We will help you build a strong foundation that can’t be rocked, and a home in yourself where you can know peace and acceptance.

Grace in the Shadows
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, MDiv, MA, NCMHC, ALMHC, VALMHC, SCMHC, FLMHC, KYMHC, IDMHC
I address emotional abuse with a compassionate and faith-based approach, recognizing the profound impact it has on an individual's well-being. Grounded in Christian principles, I provide a safe and supportive space for clients to explore the emotional wounds caused by abuse. Incorporating biblical teachings on love, compassion, and the inherent worth of individuals, therapy sessions may involve prayer, scriptural reflection, and discussions on forgiveness. I collaborate with clients to build resilience, establish healthy boundaries, and foster a sense of empowerment through their faith. While addressing the psychological aspects of emotional abuse, the counselor also guides individuals in seeking spiritual strength and relying on God's grace for healing. This integrated approach aims to support clients in breaking free from the cycle of abuse, restoring their self-worth, and promoting emotional well-being within the context of their Christian beliefs.

Emotional Abuse
Sumer Statler Aeed
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
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 emotional abuse allows us to create new blueprints for moving forward with new outcomes and to create new relationships with ourselves and others.
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.

Emotional Abuse
Paul W Anderson, PhD
Psychologist, Licensed counseling psychologist, Licensed Addictions counselor, PsyPact
Emotional abuse is not considered a crime. No one gets arrested for this kind of abuse. The victim has to show bruises and lacerations for an investigation to occur. Clever abusers and predators know this. Rather than beating the body of their victim, they will work with their minds, gaslight them and continue to distort their belief in their own perception of reality. The worst of emotional abuse is that the victim can feel hopeless, abandoned, misunderstood and even worry about being crazy.
