Emotional Abuse
Alessia Zita | Zita Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapy (Qualifying)
Do you often feel on edge, confused, or unsure of yourself in relationships? Many people who have experienced emotional abuse learn to question their feelings, minimize their pain, or adapt themselves to avoid conflict or rejection. You may have been told you were “too sensitive”, made to doubt your perceptions, or felt responsible for keeping the peace—leaving you disconnected from your own needs and sense of self.
These responses are not weaknesses. They are protective strategies that developed in environments where safety, validation, or consistency were missing. What matters is how these patterns continue to shape your life now. Together, we can gently process your experiences, rebuild trust in your inner voice, and work toward feeling more grounded, empowered, and lighter in your relationships. You adapted for a reason. Let’s explore why—and what healing can look like now.

North Star Therapy-- Cleo Haber
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you have experienced emotional abuse, you may be living with normal but unwanted emotional and physical effects of trauma. Are you experiencing panic attacks, anxiety, depression or feelings of shame, fear or anger? Perhaps your sleep is disrupted, or you feel disconnected from your body at times. Psychotherapy can be an effective way to heal from trauma. We will work with you – at your own pace - to make new meaning from past experiences, while teaching you strategies to stay grounded and feel safer in your mind and body. We use trauma-informed approaches to help you feel less overwhelmed, and create safety in the present.

Emotional Abuse
Samantha Williams-Lauder
Registered Social Worker, MSW,RSW
Emotional abuse can slowly erode confidence, self-trust, boundaries, and your sense of reality. You may feel confused, anxious, ashamed, or responsible for someone else’s behaviour. Therapy can help you name what happened, understand its impact, rebuild self-worth, and begin reconnecting with your own voice and needs.

Shane Smyth
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, OACCPP
Creating a safe and supportive environment to begin the healing work following emotional abuse is a priority for me in my work with clients. I know first hand the impact emotional abuse has on one's ability to engage in relationships and I want to help people regain trust in themselves to identify and maintain healthy relationships with others. Working on boundaries and personal values is a key part of this process as well as exploring underlying traumas and abuses.

Emina Hendricks, CareWay.ca
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Ed., R.P.
Have you been involved in a toxic relationship or have you been raised in emotional abuse?
Sometimes the messaging and the experiences stick: you may have been silenced and the abuser's voice may have been internalized - you find yourself with an active internal critic - you take a step forward only to be set back again.
CareWay offers several psychotherapy modalities which could help you overcome the effects of emotional abuse and find your true voice.

Bhavna Lalwani
Registered Psychotherapist, MA Counselling, RP
Emotional abuse can be subtle or overt, but its impact is profound. It may involve manipulation, belittling, gaslighting, or constant criticism that erodes your sense of self-worth, confidence, and safety. Over time, you may feel trapped, anxious, or hyper-aware of others’ moods, often questioning your own perceptions and decisions.
In therapy, I provide a safe and validating space to process these experiences, rebuild self-esteem, and develop boundaries. Together, we focus on reclaiming your voice, strengthening resilience, and cultivating healthier relationships with yourself and others.

Online in Ottawa, ON
Ottawa's identity as Canada's capital and a major hub for the federal public service creates a therapy landscape shaped by the particular stresses of government work — including bureaucratic frustration, political exposure, and the weight of careers lived in proximity to national policy decisions. The city's large bilingual population means both French- and English-speaking therapists are essential, with many practitioners offering services in both official languages. The Ottawa Hospital and Montfort Hospital provide institutional mental health resources alongside a private practice community serving the Glebe, Westboro, and Barrhaven areas. Ottawa's significant visible minority communities — including large Lebanese, Chinese, and Somali populations — drive growing demand for culturally affirming and multilingual therapists.
