Kristin Robert
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
Emotional abuse is not simply conflict, poor communication, or a relationship in which both people occasionally cause harm. It is a pattern that uses criticism, humiliation, intimidation, withdrawal, blame, manipulation, or control to gradually erode another person’s trust in their own perceptions. Over time, the person may become hypervigilant, apologetic, isolated, and increasingly focused on preventing the next reaction, often mistaking survival strategies for personal weakness. Therapy involves naming the pattern without minimizing or manufacturing shared blame, restoring confidence in one’s reality, rebuilding boundaries and agency, and creating a plan for emotional and physical safety when needed. Understanding the person causing harm may provide context, but it does not excuse the impact or replace accountability.

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.

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.
