Emotional Abuse
Marley Cote
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, MS
Emotional abuse and neglect are often not given the weight they deserve. For many of my clients who have endured several forms of abuse, it is oftentimes the emotional abuse that stays with them for years. 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.

Emotional Abuse
Emma Esper
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPCC
Emotional abuse can be one of the most detrimental things to endure and can cause significant conflict within individuals, couples, and families. However, this is also an area of abuse that often does not get addressed. It is often rationalized away. I am here to validate the hurtful impacts of emotional abuse, help victims to find their voice, process feelings of guilt and shame, and to help make repairs.

Emotional Abuse
Dr. Sharareh Namjoo
Marriage and Family Therapist, Doctor of Psychology
Emotional abuse can be difficult to recognize, yet its effects can be profound. Repeated criticism, manipulation, control, blame, rejection, or invalidation may leave you questioning your perceptions, doubting your worth, and feeling responsible for another person’s behavior.
I provide a safe, compassionate space to help clients understand abusive patterns, process their emotional impact, rebuild self-trust, and establish healthier boundaries. Together, we work to release shame and self-blame, reconnect with your voice, and restore the confidence and inner security needed to create safer, more respectful relationships.

Emotional Abuse
Micha Noble, MA
Pre-Licensed Professional, AMFT
What if we could see the broken pieces of ourselves and view them with compassion? What if we saw our scars as marks of courage and resiliency? The journey towards wholeness includes accepting each part of ourselves--the part that is joyful, the part that laughs, the part that hurts, the part that feels empty.
