Emotional Abuse
Sara Denman
Psychologist, Psy.D
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.

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.

Emotional Abuse
Corrie Blissit
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT#150479
Victims of emotional abuse may feel like they have completely lost themselves. When we experience psychological abuse, there are severe ramifications that impact our ability to function holistically in our lives. To make matters worse, emotional abuse is often invisible to others. Our partner may behave differently in front our friends and family, but behind closed doors they are bullies and tyrants. This leads to feelings of isolation, hopelessness, and shame. As the confusion and disorientation of this experience sets in, victims start to distrust their own healthy instincts and may even blame themselves for their partners abusive behaviors. The cycle of psychological beatings is a soul killing process. Whether you experienced emotional abuse as a child or are currently living with this traumatic experience, there is hope, joy, and empowerment to be found beyond the pain and suffering. Call or email me today to schedule a free 20-minute consultation.

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.

Emotional Abuse
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 method that can help you process challenging 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
Timothy Weymann
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker (L.C.S.W.)
Healing from emotional abuse requires a space that feels safe, validating, and steady. I work with clients to gently untangle the confusion, self-doubt, and shame that often linger long after the abuse has ended. Emotional abuse can deeply impact self-worth, trust, boundaries, and one’s sense of reality. My role is to help you make sense of what happened, reconnect with your inner voice, and rebuild a foundation of confidence and clarity. Our work focuses on restoring a sense of safety—both internally and in relationships. We identify harmful patterns, strengthen boundaries, and process painful experiences at a pace that feels manageable. I integrate evidence-based approaches to address trauma responses, reduce anxiety and depression, and support nervous system regulation. Above all, I approach this work with warmth and respect. Healing from emotional abuse is about helping you reclaim your strength, autonomy, and sense of self.
