Rose Snyder, EdM, PsyD, LLC
Psychologist, PsyD
As a certified EMDR provider, I work with many individuals who are survivors of emotional abuse. My first job out of college was at a residential treatment center in San Francisco for children, many of whom had experienced terrible emotional, physical, and sexual abuse. My work has always included many survivors and I strive to be attuned and supportive throughout the process. I use various modalities in this treatment, including polyvagal approaches, psychodynamic insight-oriented therapy, AEDP (attachment based relational work) and trauma work (most often with EMDR if tolerated).

Susanna La
Psychologist, Ph.D.
When we experience emotional abuse, we come up with creative ways of coping to try to get our needs met or even to disconnect from those needs. The creative coping strategies we develop as children tend to stay with us into adulthood, especially if we haven’t developed new coping skills. Without awareness of the impacts of our pain, we tend to replicate patterns of people pleasing, hyper-independence, perfectionism, lack of boundaries, and seeking emotionally unavailable/painful relationships.

Sandy Kong
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT 119380
Healing from Narcissistic Abuse can be a hard and painful process. Narcissistic abuse is a severe, strategic form of emotional abuse characterized by gaslighting, manipulation, and control used to diminish a victim's self-worth, often resulting in PTSD. Signs of Emotional Trauma include: Chronic self-doubt and feeling "crazy"; Hypervigilance and anxiety; Isolation and feeling worthless; Difficulty trusting one's own instincts. Therapists specializing in this area help survivors recognize the tactics and untangle the manipulation. Specialized trauma therapy focuses on breaking the trauma bond, validating reality, restoring self-esteem, and establishing boundaries to heal from these toxic power dynamics. This includes learning to say no and establishing strict boundaries to protect emotional safety, reconnecting with one's sense of self-worth separate from the abuser's perception, and developing techniques for managing stress and triggers.

Allen Shamon
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I help survivors understand the dynamics of emotional abuse, including how manipulation, gaslighting, and other tactics are used to exert control and power over them. By recognizing and naming the abusive behaviors, survivors can begin to dismantle the internalized beliefs and self-blame that often accompany emotional abuse.
