Emotional Abuse
Christina Dee
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A. LMFT
Psychological/emotional abuse, betrayal trauma, coercive control and neglect are often not given the weight they deserve.Emotional abuse can be subtle and deeply damaging, leaving invisible scars that affect your self-worth and relationships. Emotional abuse can cut the sense of yourself, your self-esteem, and your self-worth. The impact of this is significant, often limiting career opportunities, relationships with self and others, and emotional experiences. If you have survived emotional abuse and/or neglect, it is possible to finally heal these wounds and find yourself again. I will help you untangle the complexities of your experiences, develop healthy boundaries, and restore self-esteem.

Emotional Abuse
Julie Levin
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
So often, family members who struggle with addiction and mental illness become abusive. They may not even understand how their behavior impacts others. If you grew up with emotional abuse, you may not even fully recognize it as abuse - because it has become so normal. But you know you’re hurting. You know you feel fear in situations that don’t seem to bother others. You may have a harsh inner critic, worry about what others think of you, or get stuck in shame spirals - especially if shame was used to control or manipulate you. I help clients develop an inner voice that is consistently warm, kind, supportive and nurturing. As this inner voice develops, it not only heals past abuse, it also prevents future abuse. Because, once you feel what it’s like to be truly cared for (from within), it becomes nearly impossible to settle for less.

Emotional Abuse
Melissa Klass M.A., LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #119163
Emotional abuse at the hands of a loved one leaves a scar that no one can see. When you’ve been manipulated, gaslit, and covertly insulted for months or years you can start to lose your sense of self. Even when you have found the strength to end a relationship where you were treated this way, it haunts you. You have difficulty trusting or joyfully engaging with new people. Or maybe this is a relationship that it is not so simple to end. Perhaps it’s a relationship with a parent or sibling. You’re exhausted. You’re tired of walking on eggshells. Whether it’s time to heal from a former relationship, set some boundaries in an existing one, or bring a relationship to an end, therapy can provide you a safe place to process your experiences. Once you get to know yourself again, you can set some much-needed boundaries or say goodbye, whatever is right for you.
