Reema Qamar
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC, CCC
Therapy utilizes a trauma-focused approach that integrates narrative interventions, CBT and somatic experiencing to build a positive sense of self and self-efficacy. Psychoeducation on boundaries and exploration of how to draw stronger boundaries to restore a sense of self, improve confidence, and feel empowered to maintain autonomy are critical components of overcoming emotional abuse.

Rawda Tomoum
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC, CCC, CGT
Emotional abuse can deeply affect your sense of self, your ability to trust your own perceptions, and what you come to believe is normal or acceptable in a relationship. You may find yourself constantly second-guessing, walking on eggshells, feeling responsible for someone else’s reactions, or struggling to explain why something feels so wrong. I can help you name what has been happening, understand its impact, rebuild trust in yourself, and gain a sense of strength and empowerment to navigate life the way you want or need.

Chris Russell

This sinister psychic attack is just as damaging as the physical abuse, and often they go together. I am aware of this through personal experience, and through practice and training know how to guide you through and out of emotional abusive situations.

Spencer Copland
Registered Psychotherapist, RCC, MCP
Emotional abuse can be difficult to recognize, especially when it’s subtle and ongoing. You may find yourself questioning your reality, feeling “not good enough,” walking on eggshells, or carrying a persistent sense of shame, confusion, or self-doubt. Over time, these experiences can shape how you see yourself and relate to others, often leaving you feeling disconnected from your own needs, voice, and sense of safety.
In our work together, we’ll take a trauma-informed approach to gently explore your experiences and their impact, at a pace that feels safe for you. We’ll focus on rebuilding a sense of trust in yourself, understanding how these patterns developed, and creating space for your emotions and experiences to be met with compassion rather than judgment. This process can help you reconnect with your inner voice, boundaries, and sense of self.
I draw from EMDR, IFS, ACT, Mindfulness-Based CBT, and somatic-based practices, tailoring our work to your needs. When appropriate, EMDR can help process painful or confusing relational experiences, while other approaches support you in strengthening self-trust, emotional regulation, and healthier relationship patterns. Together, we’ll build practical tools while supporting deeper healing and a more grounded, empowered way of relating to yourself and others.
I offer both in-person and virtual counselling sessions. You’re welcome to reach out or visit my website to book a free 20-minute phone consultation to see if we’re a good fit.

Emotional abuse and gaslighting can leave you questioning your reality, doubting yourself, and feeling isolated, anxious, or as though you've lost your sense of who you are. Whether you've experienced narcissistic abuse, gaslighting, childhood emotional neglect, or another form of emotional trauma, I provide a safe and compassionate space to help you process what you've been through, rebuild your self worth, and develop healthier boundaries. Healing is possible, and together we'll work toward helping you feel more confident, empowered, and connected to yourself again.

Romana Hrivnakova
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, RCC
Emotional abuse can be deeply isolating because the wounds are often invisible, yet the impact on your sense of self is profound. With over 15 years of experience in the mental health field, I understand how persistent gaslighting, criticism, and control can cause your 'parts' to shut down or live in a state of constant self-doubt.
My approach is to help you rebuild the internal trust that was eroded in your relationship. We look at the survival strategies you developed to cope with the unpredictability of your environment and work to strengthen your own 'inner voice.' Together, we create a compassionate path toward reclaiming your reality, your boundaries, and your confidence.

The lingering impact of emotional abuse can deeply distort your reality, leaving your nervous system untethered from your own intuition and somatic boundaries. I offer a dedicated, slow relational anchor for clients in Vancouver to help process the systemic confusion and grief of these dynamics. Together, we will gently work to dissolve internalized blame, allowing you to safely rebuild absolute trust in your own perception and bodily knowing.

Surrey is one of Metro Vancouver's most populous and rapidly growing cities, with a large and diverse immigrant population — particularly from South Asia, the Philippines, and East Africa — creating strong demand for culturally competent and multilingual therapists who understand the pressures of settlement, family expectations, and bicultural identity. The city faces significant challenges around substance use, gang-related trauma, and concentrated poverty in some neighbourhoods, and therapists specializing in addiction recovery and community mental health serve an important role. Surrey Memorial Hospital provides institutional mental health resources, with a growing private therapy community reflecting the city's expanding population. Many Surrey residents access care through the wider Metro Vancouver ecosystem via transit and telehealth.
