Tara Lawton
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
I have worked extensively with individuals who have experienced emotional abuse, whether in childhood, intimate relationships, or other interpersonal settings. Emotional abuse can be difficult to name, but its impact—on self-worth, trust, and emotional regulation—is often profound and long-lasting.
Using a trauma-informed approach, I help clients recognize patterns of abuse, rebuild self-esteem, and establish healthier boundaries. I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), which can be especially effective in processing and healing from the lingering effects of emotional trauma. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where clients can begin to reclaim their voice, their confidence, and their sense of self.

Alena Porter
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
When a person is in a relationship, personal or professional, it is sometimes hard for that person to notice emotional abuse until it becomes severe or someone else notices that it is happening. This is not the client's fault, emotional abuse usually starts very subtly with harsh comments or shutting down but these behaviors are often attributed to a bad day. Over time when a person hears harsh comments enough times they start to believe them. Therapy for emotional abuse is in part helping client's recognize emotional abuse and try to set boundaries, if it is safe to do so. Then we will work to desensitize, reframe, and replace those harsh comments with positive beliefs while increasing the client's sense of self-worth.

Dr. Anna Smith
Psychologist, PsyD, MEd, MA
The lingering effects of emotional abuse—gaslighting, criticism, control, or constant walking on eggshells—can leave you doubting yourself, struggling with trust, and feeling disconnected from your own voice and desires. My trauma-informed approach helps you name what happened, rebuild self-trust, process the emotional wounds, and learn new ways to feel safe in relationships (with yourself and others). Whether you’re still in the relationship or healing afterward, we create a space where you can reclaim your sense of worth and move toward relationships that feel supportive rather than depleting.
