Lafayette, California therapist: Nes Pinar Psychotherapy, marriage and family therapist
Emotional Abuse

Nes Pinar Psychotherapy

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I help people who have experienced emotional abuse reconnect with their own voice, needs, and sense of worth after long periods of being dismissed, controlled, or minimized. Together, we gently untangle the impact of those dynamics—shame, self‑doubt, confusion, and the lingering pull of old patterns—so you can understand what happened with clarity and compassion. My approach is steady, relational, and deeply affirming, supporting you as you rebuild trust in yourself and create relationships that feel safe, mutual, and respectful.

San Jose, California therapist: Russell Wilkie, marriage and family therapist
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.

San Francisco, California therapist: Lisa Andresen, licensed clinical social worker
Emotional Abuse

Lisa Andresen

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
What if it's precisely because you're smart, caring, and accommodating that you've been targeted by manipulative people? It's not your fault that people can be untrustworthy, self-serving, harsh, and insensitive. Narcissists and Sociopaths represent 2% of the population, and they often have children. Growing up with highly critical, emotionally unavailable parents, who may have been caught up in their own mental health challenges, addictions, or abusive relationships can be considered traumatic. People who've survived narcissistic abuse, upbringings without empathy, or a relentless break-down of your ego can still be successful high-achievers and entrepreneurs. Even after trying everything you can to keep the peace, please them, what if you still feel unsupported by your loved ones? I specialize in the links between trauma and achievement, as well as family estrangement. Gradually, you'll learn that your preferences and needs matter too. We'll identify your triggers, practice self-regulation strategies, and develop tools for you to connect with your self-worth, establish a sense of safety, and identify trustworthy people.
