Grace Judd
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LAMFT
Emotional abuse can be subtle and confusing, eroding confidence through criticism, manipulation, gaslighting, or chronic invalidation. Many clients come in knowing something feels “off” but struggling to name it. I help individuals understand these patterns, rebuild their sense of self, and heal the nervous-system impact of ongoing emotional harm. Together, we strengthen boundaries, rediscover personal truth, and cultivate relationships where you feel respected, valued, and emotionally safe.

Jeni Gutke
Licensed Professional Counselor, MC, LPC
Trauma of all kinds change how we operate and how we feel powerful, responsible, valuable, and safe in our bodies, in relationships and our world. When we have emotional abuse, that changes how we operate and approach relationships and how we feel about ourselves. We offer trauma intervention that can help clear the trauma from the body and reroute the mind to rewire those negative cognitions and help bring in adaptive thoughts and truths about ourselves.

Sumer Statler Aeed
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Emotional abuse is an often hidden or hard to pinpoint type of abuse that may occur in our adult relationships, those with our parents growing up, or both. One definition of emotional abuse includes psychological (i.e. non-physical) behaviors such as threats, insults, constant monitoring or “checking in,” controlling, shaming, humiliation, intimidation, isolation or ignoring behaviors.
You may also be dealing with childhood emotional abuse which can be defined as, 'sustained, repetitive, inappropriate emotional response to the child’s experience of emotion and its accompanying expressive behavior’. Healing emotional abuse allows us to create new blueprints for moving forward with new outcomes and to create new relationships with ourselves and others.
Healing involves speaking our truth, learning about connecting to our emotions, boundary setting, connecting to our bodies and beginning to create new ways of building loving safe relationships with ourselves and others. Depending upon your own history we may make use of variety of tools to heal, including somatic work, trauma work, journaling, boundary setting, inner child work, family systems work, art therapy, or many other paths that can lead to reclaiming your truth.

Patricia Fahmy
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
If you've experienced emotional abuse, you may find yourself constantly second-guessing yourself, questioning your perceptions, walking on eggshells, or feeling like you've lost confidence in who you are.
Even after the relationship ends, the effects often remain.
Many survivors struggle with self-doubt, people-pleasing, anxiety, difficulty trusting others, and feeling disconnected from themselves.
I help you rebuild your sense of self, strengthen boundaries, process painful experiences, and begin to feel safe, confident, and empowered again.

Alice Barton
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Part of the domestic abuse/violence dynamic, emotional abuse is one form of intimate partner violence. Emotional abuse can be confusing, keeping the woman locked in a cycle of battering, building and beautiful gifts. I have worked with hundreds of women at various stages in their relationships to help them build their self esteem so they can make the best decision for themselves and their children.

10 Years Experience
Online in Mesa, AZ Arizona (Online Only)
Mesa is one of the largest suburbs in the United States and part of the greater Phoenix metro, with a significant LDS (Latter-day Saint) community that shapes the social fabric and the therapy landscape — many residents seek therapists who can integrate faith values with evidence-based approaches to anxiety, relationship issues, and family dynamics. The city's car-dependent suburban sprawl and intense summer heat contribute to social isolation, and therapists here frequently address loneliness and the challenges of building genuine community in a dispersed environment. Banner Desert Medical Center provides institutional mental health resources, and many Mesa residents also access care through the broader Phoenix-metro therapy ecosystem. The city's large Latino and Mormon populations both drive demand for culturally specific therapeutic approaches.
