Emotional Abuse

Dr. Carolina Castanos, PhD, LMFT

Marriage and Family Therapist, PHD, LMFT
Victims or perpetrators of emotional abuse are stuck in an abusive dynamic which most likely began before this relationship (in the case of adults) and will determine future relationships (in the case of kids). I work with recognizing this dynamic, uncovering deeper wounds, and providing tools.

Kingston, New York therapist: MJB Wellness LLC, hypnotherapist
Emotional Abuse

MJB Wellness LLC

Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Coach, Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Sex Educator, Certified Reiki
Unfortunately, more people that we would like to admit have suffered emotional abuse and it has affected their lives negatively. It is at the root of many issues that people come to me for, even if they don't realize it. When we do our initial detailed intake interview, these things quickly come to light. Hypnosis is a powerful tool for resolving or neutralizing past hurts and trauma. many of my clients have continued to suffer, even as traditional therapy has failed to give them relief. Usually, one or two sessions of hypnosis are enough to resolve their trauma and free them. As they emerge from trance, the change is visible as they seem lighter, happier, more relaxed, their faces smoother as the tension leaves their bodies.

Denton, Texas therapist: Kristin Wright, licensed professional counselor
Emotional Abuse

Kristin Wright

Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Were you criticized heavily as a child? Did you feel worthless growing up? Or have you been in a relationship where you were gas lighted and treated poorly. Emotional abuse is often a silent form of trauma that most don't recognize until they are much older. However, it can lead to low self-esteem, perfectionism, struggles in relationships later in life, and even PTSD. With many years of experiences working with abuse survivors, I strive to create a safe environment for them to process their traumatic past and learn to love the strong and courageous person that they are.

Houston, Texas therapist: Shawna Damiani, licensed professional counselor
Emotional Abuse

Shawna Damiani

Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Emotional abuse can be one of the hardest things to name — because it so rarely looks the way people expect abuse to look. There are no visible marks. There are no dramatic moments that are easy to point to. Instead, there is a slow erosion. A relationship that made you question your memory, your perception, your worth. A voice in your head that sounds a lot like someone else's. A version of yourself you barely recognize anymore. Maybe you've been told you're too sensitive. Maybe you spent years walking on eggshells, managing someone else's moods, shrinking yourself to keep the peace. Maybe you left and still find yourself defending them — or wondering if what happened was really that bad. That confusion isn't weakness. It's one of the most common and painful hallmarks of emotional abuse. At Love Let Out, we work with survivors who are trying to find their footing after relationships that left them doubting themselves. We understand the complicated grief that comes with loving someone who hurt you. We understand why it's hard to leave, hard to stay gone, and hard to trust yourself again afterward. Our work is trauma-informed and goes at your pace. We won't push you to label your experience before you're ready or tell you how to feel about the person who hurt you. We will help you reconnect with your own sense of reality, rebuild your confidence from the inside out, and begin to trust yourself again — maybe for the first time in a long time. What happened to you was real. And you deserve a space where that is never questioned.

Dallas, Texas therapist: Aubrey Richardson, licensed professional counselor
Emotional Abuse

Aubrey Richardson

Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Emotional abuse is often subtle, confusing, and difficult to name. Many clients minimize their experiences or question whether what they are going through “counts.” Over time, this can lead to self-doubt, hypervigilance, and a loss of trust in your own perceptions. Therapy provides a space to clearly identify harmful patterns, rebuild your sense of reality and self-trust, and develop boundaries that protect your emotional well-being.

Hypnotherapy can play a valuable role in the treatment of emotional abuse by helping individuals process and heal from traumatic experiences. Through guided relaxation and suggestion, hypnotherapists assist clients in accessing subconscious memories and emotions linked to abuse, allowing them to reframe negative beliefs and regain a sense of self-worth.

San Antonio, Texas therapist: Christina Song, marriage and family therapist
Emotional Abuse

Christina Song

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT-S
Emotional abuse can be subtle, confusing, and deeply destabilizing. It often involves patterns of control, manipulation, gaslighting, invalidation, or chronic criticism that erode a person’s sense of self over time. Many survivors question their own perceptions or minimize their experiences, especially when there are no visible injuries or when care and harm coexist. In therapy, I offer a space to gently explore your experiences without pressure to label them before you’re ready. Our work focuses on restoring trust in your own reality, understanding how abusive dynamics take shape, and supporting your nervous system as it recovers from chronic relational stress. Therapy is paced, consent-centered, and grounded in compassion—helping you reconnect with your voice, rebuild boundaries, and move toward relationships that feel safe, mutual, and affirming.

Arlington, Texas therapist: Crystal Williamson, licensed clinical social worker
Emotional Abuse

Crystal Williamson

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-S
Sometimes abuse that doesn't leave a physical mark hurts us the deepest. Unfortunately, many people minimize abusive behaviors as "not a big deal" or "not really abuse." If a significant person in your life regularly withheld affection, called you names, gaslighted you, made everything your fault, and made you feel terrible about yourself, this is abuse and it does cause significant harm. I can help you find true healing from these experiences so that you don't have to keep carrying this around.

Austin's explosive tech-industry growth has brought an influx of young professionals navigating burnout, identity shifts, and the pressures of rapid lifestyle change in an increasingly expensive city. The city has a large LGBTQ+ community and strong demand for affirming therapists specializing in gender identity, relationship dynamics, and life transitions. The University of Texas and major hospital systems including Ascension Seton and St. David's HealthCare provide supplementary mental health resources alongside the city's growing network of private practices. Many Austin therapists offer telehealth, making it easier to find care across the wider metro and surrounding Hill Country communities.
