Emotional Abuse
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.

Emotional Abuse
Russell Wilkie
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
The subtlety of emotional abuse is sometimes hard to see. Having studied it thoroughly, I know it very well and see it clearly and I coach others how to see it sooner. Getting out of a negative relationship, or the cycle of not seeing it, takes a good deal of understanding the nuances of what it is and how it happens. I can help you learn to see it earlier and get yourself out of bad situations sooner and set better boundaries so you don't get abused in the future.

Emotional Abuse
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.
