Emotional Abuse
Jessi Blank
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
With clients having suffered from emotional abuse, I incorporate not only psychodynamic techniques but also as an informed internal family systems therapist, I help clients to better identify their different "parts" in efforts to allow their true self to help heal the more exiled (vulnerable) parts that can become greatly activated when there has been history of emotional abuse, for example.

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
Laura Anderson LPCC, Eff Shame Therapy
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
Emotional abuse is insidious precisely because it leaves no visible marks — and because it works by making you question your own reality. The constant criticism, the gaslighting, the walking on eggshells, the slow erosion of your sense of self until you're not sure who you were before. It counts. It caused real harm. And it can be healed.
I work with survivors of emotional abuse from a trauma-informed, shame-free perspective using EMDR, Flash Technique, and approaches designed to get underneath the self-doubt and the internalized voices that aren't yours to carry anymore. We work to rebuild what was taken — your trust in yourself, your sense of worth, your ability to know what's real.

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.
