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.

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.

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.

Melissa Kummer Dague
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Abuse of any kind should never happen, but when it does, therapy can be a valuable tool in healing. I began my career at a domestic violence and sexual assault shelter, and am trained in evidence based trauma modalities like Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to best address the needs of those impacted by violence.

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.

Michael J. Salas
Counselor/Therapist, PsyD, LPC-S, LCDC, CSAT, CST
Emotional abuse can be hard to name, especially when there’s no yelling, hitting, or clear line that’s been crossed. It often shows up as manipulation, gaslighting, control, or constant criticism—leaving you doubting your own feelings, questioning your worth, or walking on eggshells in your own relationships.
If you're starting to wonder whether what you’ve experienced was abuse, or if you're trying to heal from the impact of someone who chipped away at your confidence over time, I can help. You don’t have to justify your pain or prove that it was “bad enough.” If it hurt you, that’s enough.
In therapy, we’ll work to rebuild your self-trust, identify the patterns you’ve internalized, and create a new sense of safety in your relationships—with others and with yourself. Healing from emotional abuse is possible, and you deserve support that helps you move forward without shame.

Carolyn Murphy, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Counseling Psychology
I have many years of experience working with clients who have experienced emotional abuse (and/or other types of abuse) in their relationships. Many people in this situation find it extremely beneficial to work with a therapist to help them cope as best they can with the trauma they have been experiencing and help navigate the paths they would like to take to move forward in their lives. I believe that the quality of the therapist/client relationship is paramount to our work together, and because of this I highly encourage you to choose a therapist that feels like a "good fit" for you. I always start with an initial consultation appointment where I can learn more about your background and reasons for seeking therapy, answer any questions you may have, and then plan together from there. Starting therapy can feel daunting or overwhelming for many people, so it is important that we work at a pace that feels comfortable to you. My approach to therapy is interactive and supportive, with an overall goal of increasing self-awareness and coping skills to help promote the kind of changes that you would like to see.

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.
