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.

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.

Dr. Joe Rustum
Psychologist, PsyD, License Psychologist
I help clients process the impact of emotional abuse, including criticism, manipulation, gaslighting, control, invalidation, and patterns that have caused them to question themselves or lose confidence. In therapy, we work on understanding what happened, rebuilding self-trust, strengthening boundaries, and reducing the guilt, shame, anxiety, or confusion that can follow emotionally harmful relationships. My goal is to help clients feel clearer, more grounded, and more confident in their ability to protect their well-being.

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.
