Ms. Clare Pentelow
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, M.S.W., R.S.W.
Emotional abuse is a traumatic experience that often occurs to an individual over the course of years, sometimes by more than one person. I work with my clients to understand the impact emotional abuse has had on them - the way they view themselves and the world. Through deep empathy and compassion, I work with my clients to have compassion for themselves, and what they went through. By gaining insight and not identifying with the emotional abuse, individuals are able to move forward no longer carrying that burden.

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.

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.

Amanda Stokes
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, E-RYT 500
I help clients to understand that abuse is what happens to us, not who we are. Again, I use a client-centred compassion-for-self approach. I also use EMDR - Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing to map out the traumatic memory network and begin rewiring our beliefs and physiological responses to the triggers or memories.

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.

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.

Dr. Evelyn McMullen
Psychologist, C. Psych.
Learning how to identify all forms of abuse including gaslighting can be a big step. The impact of early childhood trauma can carry into adult life. You can find ways to heal, strengthen, and mitigate some of these effects without having to actually relive the past.

Emotional abuse can be subtle or overt, but its impact is profound.

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.
