Emotional Abuse
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.
