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.

Clayre Sessoms
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC, ATR-BC
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.

Candice Seligman
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, DVATI, CCC
Emotional abuse can leave deep but often invisible wounds that impact your self-worth, nervous system, and sense of reality. You may question yourself, struggle with boundaries, feel confused, or feel anxious and on edge in relationships. My work with clients is trauma-informed, nervous-system aware, somatic/body-based, and compassion-focused. I can support you in healing unhealthy relational patterns from the root cause, rebuilding safety in your body, healing your inner child, reclaiming self-confidence and self-trust, and more. Together we restore clarity, authenticity, alignment, self-trust, and the capacity for healthy, secure connection.

Linda Szeto
Therapist, RCC, CCC
Emotional abuse can be difficult to recognize, especially when it comes from someone you depend on or care about. It can involve persistent criticism, humiliation, manipulation, control, or having your feelings and experiences dismissed or denied. These experiences can affect how you see yourself, relate to others, and feel about your own needs and boundaries, sometimes long after the relationship has changed or ended. My approach draws on EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Brainspotting, and somatic approaches to help you work through the emotional impact of these experiences, loosen the hold of shame and self-doubt, and build a stronger sense of trust in yourself.

Any type of abuse, including emotional, could be very difficult to admit to ourselves and others. Getting support in working through the abuse might be the most courage first step we ever take. I invite you to reach out so we can walk together towards your healing.

Heron Payne Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor, RTC
Emotional abuse can leave you questioning your perceptions, doubting your needs, or feeling responsible for other people’s reactions. You may have learned to walk on eggshells, minimize your feelings, avoid conflict, or second-guess yourself long after the relationship or situation has changed. I offer a supportive, non-judgmental space to make sense of these experiences and their lasting impact. Using mindfulness, somatic awareness, and parts-oriented work, we can explore the patterns that developed for protection, strengthen your trust in yourself, and help you move toward relationships that feel safer, more mutual, and more grounded.

Vanessa Fingland
Counsellor/Therapist, CCPCPR.cand, RPC-C
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.

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.
