Emotional Abuse
Clare Pentelow
Therapist, MSW, RSW
Emotional abuse often leaves invisible scars that can be just as impactful as physical ones. It can leave you questioning your reality, struggling with a loud inner critic, or feeling like you are constantly walking on eggshells. In our sessions, we create a safe, non-judgmental space to unpack the profound impact these experiences have had on your self-esteem and your ability to trust—both yourself and others.
My approach is deeply relational and trauma-informed. We can use EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) as a powerful tool to help your brain and body "digest" the distressing memories and negative beliefs (like "I’m not enough" or "I’m at fault") that often linger after emotional abuse. By weaving in IFS and psychodynamic insights, we’ll work to quiet the inner critic and reconnect you with your own voice. My goal is to help you move from a state of confusion or "fawn" responses toward a life of clarity, boundaries, and reclaimed self-worth.

Nicole Moss
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), C.S.P.S.S
Life can feel overwhelming when you’re carrying the weight of emotional abuse on your own. My goal is to support you as I genuinely feel that everyone holds their own map to healing, however, many often need help navigating their path forward. Whether you’re also working on trauma recovery, healing from abuse, or working through the stages of grief, you don’t have to go through it alone. I am grateful to be that source of support for current and new clients. I help people create, enforce, and maintain boundaries that may have once felt impossible to implement, giving them space to feel safer, more empowered, and more connected to themselves and others. I work from an eclectic approach, believing there is no one-size-fits-all path to therapy. Together we can help you break free from limiting patterns and beliefs.

Emotional Abuse
Paighe Rojas
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Emotional abuse can be subtle—and still deeply damaging to confidence, identity, and nervous system safety. Therapy helps you name the patterns (gaslighting, blame, intimidation, control), rebuild self-trust, and strengthen boundaries without spiraling into guilt. You can heal the internal injuries and learn to choose relationships that feel steady and respectful.

Melissa Letourneau
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
My approach is grounded in authenticity, trust, and often humour. I believe you have the wisdom to navigate life’s challenges and I strive to help empower you to facilitate change in therapy. Interpersonal relationships are difficult and therapy can serves as an empowering space to explore difficulties such as emotional abuse. I work with individuals, couples, children and families offering a free consultation to ensure we are a good fit. I carry a systemic lens, exploring the way culture, community and family shape our experiences and aspirations. I am committed to strength-based and anti-oppressive practice in my work. I recognize the importance and responsibility I have as a therapist, to address the systemic inequalities impacting clients in their lives.

Monika Georgieva
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Sc., RP
Emotional abuse can leave invisible scars—chipping away at your self-esteem, creating self-doubt, and making it hard to trust yourself or others. The effects often linger long after the abuse ends, leaving you feeling trapped, confused, or unworthy. In therapy, I provide a safe, supportive space to process your experiences, rebuild self-worth, and learn healthier patterns of boundaries and connection. Together, we’ll work toward healing from the past, reclaiming your voice, and creating relationships rooted in respect and care.

Ps. I Love You Psychotherapy | M. Caracciolo Professional Corporation
Registered Psychotherapist, HBEd, MA (Hons.), Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), C-DBT
Providing psychoeducation on what Emotional Abuse is, is the first step. Emotional abuse can include:
constant yelling; name calling, demeaning remarks or threats; physically or socially isolating an individual; withholding affection; bullying or public humiliation; exposure to family violence; denying something an individual knows is true (gaslighting); destroying an individual’s belongings, hurting their pets, or threatening to do so amongst other things.
One of the hardest things a person has to do is stop being in denial when someone you love is mistreating you. Through DBT I will teach you assertiveness training, distress tolerance, self-acceptance and cognitive reframing so that you can reclaim your self worth.

It is important to understand what emotional abuse is and how it impacts our lives. Often this is subtle subjective experience. One of the most important things to remember is having the ability to be aware, notice the injury. That's the first step.

Kalyna Scherbluk
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, Qualifying
Emotional abuse can be difficult to name and even harder to heal from. I help clients explore the impact of manipulation, gaslighting, and patterns that erode self-trust. In therapy, we gently rebuild your sense of worth, identify your needs, and create space for your voice to be heard and validated.

Burlington is one of the most affluent cities in the Greater Toronto Area — situated between Hamilton and Oakville along the western shore of Lake Ontario — with a largely White, upper-middle-class population and a therapy culture shaped by the stresses of high-income suburban family life, corporate careers, and the pressure to maintain prosperity across generations. Joseph Brant Hospital provides institutional mental health resources alongside a well-established private therapy community serving the Alton Village, Tansley, and Millcroft neighborhoods. Burlington's relative homogeneity is changing as immigration diversifies the population, with growing South Asian and East Asian communities beginning to shape a broader range of therapy demand. The city's proximity to Hamilton's therapy ecosystem and the broader GTA network means specialist care is generally accessible for those willing to travel or use telehealth.
