Open Hearted Holistic Therapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Emotional abuse can happen in any relationship. Usually one person in the relationship is not emotionally mature enough to show up with humility, accountability, and vulnerability. They use strategies like manipulation and defensiveness, and these things can really deeply emotionally damage us. Emotional abuse can leave us questioning our whole identity, our decision-making abilities, our trust in our own emotions and senses.

Kamini Wood
Life Coach, FHH, CLC, CPM
Emotional abuse often happens gradually through manipulation, criticism, gaslighting, intimidation, control, or repeated invalidation. Its effects can linger long after the relationship has changed or ended, leaving you questioning yourself, struggling with anxiety, or feeling disconnected from who you are. Healing begins with understanding what happened, recognizing the survival patterns you developed, and learning to trust yourself again. Together, we'll work to rebuild confidence, strengthen boundaries, improve communication, and help you move forward with greater clarity, resilience, and self-compassion.

Emotional Abuse: Reclaiming Your Reality
Healing the Invisible Wounds of the Soul
Emotional abuse is often a "silent" trauma. Because there are no physical scars, survivors frequently find themselves trapped in a cycle of self-doubt, wondering if they are "too sensitive" or if the harm is "all in their head." In my practice, I provide a courageous and affirming space to name the harm, validate your experience, and begin the work of deconstructing the psychological "fog" of abuse.
The Anatomy of Emotional Harm
Emotional abuse is a systematic erosion of a person's sense of self. We work together to identify and heal from patterns of:
Gaslighting & Reality Disturbance: Addressing the profound confusion and overwhelm that occurs when your perception of truth is constantly undermined.
The "Fawn" Response: Understanding why your nervous system may have defaulted to people-pleasing or self-silencing as a survival strategy to avoid conflict.
Chronic Burnout & Shut Down: Healing the exhaustion that comes from living in a state of constant hyper-vigilance, always waiting for the "other shoe to drop."
A Clinical Path to Restoration
With over 20 years of experience, I use a trauma-informed, systemic approach to help you rebuild:
EMDR for Traumatic Memories: We use EMDR to process the specific "stuck" moments of verbal or emotional assault that continue to trigger rejection sensitivity or fear in your current life.
Attachment Repair: We explore how the "system" of the relationship functioned and work to rebuild your attachment to your own intuition and boundaries.
Spiritual & Systemic Deconstruction: For those coming out of high-control religious or social systems, we address the specific ways that power and "divine" authority may have been used as tools of emotional control.
Breaking the Silence
I have an extensive background in working with healers, pastors, and leaders who have experienced emotional abuse within their professional or personal systems. Whether you are currently in the relationship or are years into your "after," you deserve a space that is curious, brave, and entirely yours.
Healing is not just about leaving the situation; it is about returning to yourself.
