Emotional Abuse

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.

Barbara Freedman, Pre-Licensed Professional in Ottawa, ON
Emotional Abuse

Barbara Freedman

Pre-Licensed Professional, M.Ed., OAMHP(Ontario Association of Mental Health Professionals-2704-G)
My experience with offering counselling to Victim Service Clients afforded me the opportunity to collaborate with victims of emotional abuse daily. .Emotional abuse denotes any nonphysical behavior or attitude that is designed to control, intimidate, subjugate, demean, punish, or isolate another person. Emotional abuse is not only the most pervasive, but the least understood form of maltreatment. Its victims are often dismissed simply because their wounds are not visible. So, the pain and torment of those who experience "only" emotional abuse is often trivialized which is dangerously wrong. Emotional abuse scars the heart and damages the soul. Like cancer, it does its most deadly work internally. And, like cancer, it can metastasize if untreated.” Because emotional abuse comes in so many forms (and so many disguises), recognition is often the first key to effective response. I have provided education and awareness involving the emotional and social complexities in ending such a relationship. By imparting these individuals with self -acceptance, this can have an enormous impact on the creation or resolution of their internal struggles which allows them to further grow and develop their self identity. Although leaving any relationship often involves a mourning process, I have empowered many clients to do just so.

Collaborative Care Therapy

Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Emotional abuse, with its insidious and often hidden impact, can leave deep and lasting scars. At Collaborative Care Therapy, we approach the healing process from emotional abuse with a compassionate, integrative, relational, and trauma-informed perspective, recognizing the nuanced ways in which this abuse affects individuals. In our therapy sessions, we create a safe and nurturing environment where you can begin to unpack the effects of emotional abuse. We understand that this form of abuse can undermine self-esteem, distort self-perception, and create a lingering sense of fear or inadequacy. Our goal is to help you recognize and challenge these harmful internalized messages and beliefs. Our treatment approach is multifaceted, employing evidence-based methods tailored to your individual healing journey. We often use cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to address negative thought patterns and beliefs instilled by emotional abuse. In addition, techniques like mindfulness can help in developing present-moment awareness and reducing anxiety, while emotion-focused therapy can assist in understanding and regulating complex emotions that arise from such experiences. Being trauma-informed, we pay special attention to the traumatic aspects of emotional abuse. We work collaboratively with you to rebuild trust, not only in the therapeutic relationship but also within yourself. Our focus is on empowering you to regain a sense of control and self-worth. Through our phased approach to therapy, we aim to help you move from a place of hurt and confusion to one of clarity and strength. This journey involves learning to set healthy boundaries, improving self-compassion, and fostering positive, respectful relationships in the future. Our virtual therapy sessions offer the convenience and comfort of accessing support from your environment, ensuring continuous and personalized care. With Collaborative Care Therapy, embark on a path to healing from emotional abuse and rediscover a sense of self-worth and confidence.

Lauren Kalvari, Registered Social Worker in Toronto, ON
Emotional Abuse

Lauren Kalvari

Registered Social Worker, PhD, MSW, RSW
Emotional abuse can gradually erode self-trust, confidence, emotional stability, and one’s sense of reality. I support adults navigating manipulation, coercive dynamics, fear, shame, relational confusion, and the emotional aftermath of psychologically harmful relationships. As survivors begin to gain distance from abusive dynamics, space often emerges for deeper healing, clarity, and reconnection with self-trust. In many cases, their experiences have been dismissed or minimized — sometimes by religious authorities, family members, or the broader social system surrounding the abuser — leaving them feeling silenced, confused, and unsure of their own reality.

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.

Rebecca Goldstein, TuneinTherapy, ADHD | Trauma | Autism, Registered Social Worker in Windsor, ON
Emotional Abuse

Rebecca Goldstein, TuneinTherapy, ADHD | Trauma | Autism

Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW, MTA, BMT, FAMI
Emotional abuse can be deeply confusing — especially when you are trying to sort out whether harmful behavior is rooted in trauma, neurodivergence, emotional dysregulation, executive functioning challenges, personality patterns, or something more manipulative. Part of this work is helping you move beyond self-doubt, gaslighting, or oversimplified “red flag” lists and instead better understand patterns, impact, accountability, boundaries, and how your nervous system is responding. My approach is nuanced, practical, and compassionate. Together, we explore what is happening in your relationships, how those dynamics are affecting your wellbeing, and how to strengthen clarity, self-trust, and safer, healthier ways of relating — without reducing complex human behavior to one label alone.
