San Jose, California therapist: Russell Wilkie, marriage and family therapist
Emotional Abuse Therapy

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 Therapy

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.

Emotional Abuse Therapy

Suzanne Greene

Marriage and Family Therapist, JD, MA, LMFT, CCTP, CAGCS
Emotional abuse is sometimes overlooked as the pain and damage is on the inside. But, the effect on the psyche can be overwhelming. The loss of self esteem, self confidence can be life altering. I have studied the effects of toxic relationships and narcissism in relationships and the tools used to control the abused partner (i.e. gaslighting, isolation, and lies) I hols certificates in Codependency, Narcissism and Trauma Bonding. The goal of therapy is to free you from the toxic relationship; allow you to understand how you became captive in an emotional abusive cycle and never allow the pattern to repeat.

Emotional Abuse Therapy

Lisa Paer

Counselor/Therapist, LMFT, LPCC, EMDR Certified
Emotional abuse can have a profound impact on your self-worth, confidence, and happiness. It can cause you to feel worthless, hopeless, isolated, or trapped. You may also suffer from anxiety, depression, or PTSD. I can help you heal from the trauma of emotional abuse and regain your sense of self. My approach is based on a technique called EMDR, which stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. EMDR is a proven method that can help you process your abusive experiences and reduce their negative impact on your present and future. It can help you feel more empowered, assertive, and optimistic. I’m a caring and non-judgmental therapist who will create a safe and supportive space for you to work through your trauma, establish healthy boundaries, and enhance your well-being.

Emotional Abuse Therapy

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.

Emotional Abuse Therapy

Miriam Adrianowicz

Psychologist, PsyD
Relationships can turn abusive at times. Your safety is my priority, and we'll work together to implement ways to increase your sense of safety. It is important to understand that emotional abuse is abuse. It may not be as clear cut as physical abuse, but it is equally as harmful and traumatic. Together, we'll process your experience, try to understand the relational dynamic, and emphasize that the abuse you suffered is not your fault.

Lafayette, California therapist: Dr. Catherine Ferreira-Babor, Psy.D., psychologist
Emotional Abuse Therapy

Dr. Catherine Ferreira-Babor, Psy.D.

Psychologist, Psy.D.
Emotional abuse can be extremely confusing. It may have taken you a long time to realize that this is what is happening. You may not even be sure, but you don't need to know with any degree of certainty before you see me. Learning to take care of yourself, learning what thoughts and feelings are truly yours (and not those that have been forced upon you), understanding how you got in to this situation and how to get out, and learning how to have healthy relationships going forward...it may be complicated but it is truly liberating.

Someone who has suffered emotional abuse often feel shame and isolation. Processing the abuse with a trained therapist helps the pain loose its potency. Emotional abuse comes in many forms and sometimes it is even difficult to understand what was abuse. Therapy can bring insight and coping skills to work through the abuse.
