Emotional Abuse
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.

Emotional Abuse
Mia Turner
Therapist, MA, RYT, ASDCS, LMFT, NPT-C, CMNCS, CMIP
Healing support for survivors of emotionally abusive, manipulative, coercive, controlling, narcissistic, psychologically harmful, or chronically invalidating relationships. These experiences often leave impacts that extend far beyond the relationship itself, shaping self-trust, identity, nervous system functioning, boundaries, self-worth, and one's relationship with reality.
Emotional abuse can gradually erode confidence in your own thoughts, feelings, perceptions, memories, instincts, and lived experiences. It may show up as chronic self-doubt, people-pleasing, hypervigilance, walking on eggshells, perfectionism, difficulty trusting yourself, over-explaining, self-silencing, emotional overwhelm, dissociation, chronic guilt, difficulty identifying your needs, or feeling disconnected from your own voice and inner knowing. Many of these responses reflect the intelligence of a nervous system that learned to adapt to unpredictability, criticism, manipulation, invalidation, coercion, or emotional unsafety.
This work explores not only what happened within the relationship, but also the ways those experiences may continue to live within the body, nervous system, beliefs, relationships, and sense of self. Attention is given to the influence of attachment experiences, family systems, culture, gender, spirituality, trauma, internalized narratives, and the survival strategies that may have helped you navigate difficult relational environments. Particular care is given to understanding how emotional abuse intersects with neurodivergence, disability, chronic illness, race, culture, sexuality, and other identities that may have shaped vulnerability, coping, and meaning-making.
My approach integrates EMDR, somatic therapy, mindfulness, polyvagal-informed practices, attachment-focused therapy, parts work and Internal Family Systems (IFS), neuropsychotherapy, expressive arts, narrative therapy, and liberation-oriented healing. Therapy may include exploring patterns of protection, reconnecting with bodily wisdom and intuition, strengthening boundaries, processing traumatic experiences, understanding attachment wounds, reclaiming agency, and developing a more compassionate relationship with yourself.
Healing is not approached as becoming less sensitive, more agreeable, or simply "moving on." It is often about reclaiming trust in your own experiences, reconnecting with your body's signals, honoring your needs and emotions, unlearning harmful messages you may have internalized, and creating enough safety for your voice, boundaries, values, and authentic self to take up space again. The goal is not simply to recover from what happened, but to cultivate relationships with yourself and others that are grounded in mutual respect, authenticity, consent, reciprocity, and care.
