Emotional Abuse
Lost & Found Counseling, Jennifer Cranford
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, CAGCS (Advanced Grief Certification) and Brainspotting
Both emotional and spiritual abuse are powerful forms of manipulation that often happen gradually and are many times not recognized until later in a relationship. Sometimes spiritual abuse will happen at the hands of a revered church leader or inside a group that has become your community. Emotional and spiritual abuse effects can also create great confusion as mental games are played and you can wonder if you are the one who is in the wrong. Do you stay or go? Do you set limits? Do you expose those who have who have used their authority over you to control you? In therapy we will explore your questions and consider steps for regaining your independence.

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.

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.

Emotional Abuse: Reclaiming Your Reality
Healing the Invisible Wounds of the Soul
Emotional abuse is often a "silent" trauma. Because there are no physical scars, survivors frequently find themselves trapped in a cycle of self-doubt, wondering if they are "too sensitive" or if the harm is "all in their head." In my practice, I provide a courageous and affirming space to name the harm, validate your experience, and begin the work of deconstructing the psychological "fog" of abuse.
The Anatomy of Emotional Harm
Emotional abuse is a systematic erosion of a person's sense of self. We work together to identify and heal from patterns of:
Gaslighting & Reality Disturbance: Addressing the profound confusion and overwhelm that occurs when your perception of truth is constantly undermined.
The "Fawn" Response: Understanding why your nervous system may have defaulted to people-pleasing or self-silencing as a survival strategy to avoid conflict.
Chronic Burnout & Shut Down: Healing the exhaustion that comes from living in a state of constant hyper-vigilance, always waiting for the "other shoe to drop."
A Clinical Path to Restoration
With over 20 years of experience, I use a trauma-informed, systemic approach to help you rebuild:
EMDR for Traumatic Memories: We use EMDR to process the specific "stuck" moments of verbal or emotional assault that continue to trigger rejection sensitivity or fear in your current life.
Attachment Repair: We explore how the "system" of the relationship functioned and work to rebuild your attachment to your own intuition and boundaries.
Spiritual & Systemic Deconstruction: For those coming out of high-control religious or social systems, we address the specific ways that power and "divine" authority may have been used as tools of emotional control.
Breaking the Silence
I have an extensive background in working with healers, pastors, and leaders who have experienced emotional abuse within their professional or personal systems. Whether you are currently in the relationship or are years into your "after," you deserve a space that is curious, brave, and entirely yours.
Healing is not just about leaving the situation; it is about returning to yourself.

Emotional Abuse
Alanna Preylo
Therapist, LMSW
It's hard to describe the way someone hurt you. It's not so concrete. It always sounds like it is in your head. Even when you're alone, you worry you may just be overreacting. No one believes you. It's a lonely experience and no one acknowledges how society got here. In sessions together, we will honor you. We will honor your Story, your Pain, and Your Knowing.

Emotional Abuse
Robert Good
Counselor/Therapist, M.A., Th.M., LPC, CART
Individual counseling is offered to individuals in helping them achieve control over actions through an understanding of how thoughts, feelings, and decisions produce actions. We provide a safe environment where one’s private pain can be shared in confidence with a trained therapist to grow in self-awareness and self-esteem while helping a person make decisions, solve problems, and overcome past and present abuses and pains. Sometimes when negative memories prohibit an individual from enjoying a satisfying life, issues in one’s family of origin can be explored to understand the past and seek to establish a new identity.
Feelings like fear, sorrow, anger, rejection, and loneliness can lessen as self-acceptance and coping skills are encouraged and strengthened.

Emotional Abuse can be very difficult to heal from. Feelings of self worth and invalidation and devaluation can be debilitating. Addressing this in therapy can allow for increased self worth, understanding of the situation including why you might have been in the relationship, and understanding of your own attachment concerns.

Dr. Lonnie Bryant
Pastoral Counselor/Therapist, PhD, Certified Anger Management Treatment Professional, Certified Life Coach
Do you cringe when you hear the phrase, "sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me"? The truth is, emotional abuse can often be much more detrimental to your well-being than physical abuse. It can lead to severe lack of self-esteem, depression, anxiety, fear, and much, much more.
You are not the person your abuser says you are. You are deserving of love that doesn't hurt, control, or demean.

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.
