Emotional Abuse
Timothy Long
Registered Psychotherapist
Many people who come into therapy, no matter the issue, have experienced emotional abuse. Often they do not even realize it at first. It can be overt or covert, very direct or very subtle. In therapy we get to the root conditioning behind our present individual or relationship struggles. Emotional abuse is a very common root behind chronic blushing, excessive sweating, social anxiety, depression, addictions, eating disorders, body image issues, sexual issues, and more. If you are struggling with anything like this, reach out. I would love to help you.

Emotional Abuse
Keri Signoracci
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LPCC
Emotional abuse can be difficult to recognize, especially when it occurs alongside strong attachment or long-term relationships. I help clients identify patterns of manipulation, invalidation, power imbalance, and erosion of self-trust. Therapy focuses on restoring clarity, boundaries, and a stronger internal sense of reality and agency.

Brittany Bouffard, LCSW, CYT
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CYT
If you experienced emotional abuse or neglect in childhood, the ripple effects in adult life and relationships are many. It can impact confidence, use of voice, trust in self and others, attachment style, people-pleasing, difficulty knowing emotions or needs, and much more. I specialize in helping heal developmental (childhood) emotional abuse from emotionally immature parents, enmeshed parents, and parents with mental health illnesses. Please see my full profile for more.

Emotional Abuse
Denver Wellness Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
At Denver Wellness Counseling, our therapists are educated in working with adult children of emotionally immature parents, otherwise understood as emotional abuse or neglect. Often these adults have come to realize that their early caregivers struggled with a major mental health issue or personality disorder (ex. narcissism, borderline). Our approach to working with adult children of emotionally immature parents starts with education, so they can recognize, understand, and depersonalize their lived experience. Then, we often combine parts work (recognizing ways that their psyche had to adapt to their inefficient/unsafe caregiving), attachment resourcing (relearning and downloading messages of self-worth, existence, individuality, boundaries, strength, and safety), and trauma reprocessing (EMDR). This work benefits not only their self-identity, but also their relationships as they learn their worth, their boundaries, and their SELF identity.

Emotional Abuse
Melissa Clark with Fire and Reins
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I support individuals who have experienced emotional abuse, including chronic invalidation, manipulation, gaslighting, or relational dynamics that have eroded self-trust and emotional safety. This work is centered on helping you slow down and make sense of what you’ve been through without minimizing or over-identifying with it.
Together, we focus on rebuilding a grounded sense of self—strengthening your ability to recognize patterns, trust your internal experience, and separate your voice from the messages you may have absorbed in harmful relational dynamics. We also attend to the nervous system impact of prolonged emotional stress, supporting regulation and a greater capacity to feel safe in your own perceptions and choices.
This is a careful, paced process aimed at restoring clarity, agency, and a deeper sense of stability in how you relate to yourself and others.

Emotional Abuse
Rebecca Castle-Waller
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Hey Survivor, are you tired of feeling guilty and overwhelmed all the time? Everyone else seems so together and you're stuck battling your past? I get it. My name is Rebecca Castle-Waller and I help badass women with trauma become present in their lives and in their relationships, so you can actually enjoy this life you've built.
Many of my clients grew up in chaotic and unstable homes where from a young age they started taking care of others. Making meals, waking their parents up for work, getting their siblings off to school. From there, you went on to take care of your partner and your kiddos while also working hard to keep everything running smoothly. Now with work and relationships and family drama and life you feel constantly stressed out and like you should be doing more. Oh, and you're doing all of this while facing nightmares, flashbacks, numbness, random waves of anger, and the like. Who's taking care of you?
Let's give you a space where you can be your messy, imperfect self so you can finally take care of you. It's time to heal your trauma, you've built an amazing life and you deserve to actually live it.

Emotional Abuse
Centerpoint Healing; Raphaelle Cuenod
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Emotional abuse leaves invisible wounds-self-doubt, hypervigilance, shame, and a diminished sense of who you are. Our clinicians understand the lasting impact of these dynamics and are trained to help you reclaim your voice and your worth. Using trauma-informed approaches, we work together to process what happened, understand the patterns it created, and rebuild a stronger, more authentic sense of self.

Emotional Abuse
Christina Song
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT-S
Emotional abuse can be subtle, confusing, and deeply destabilizing. It often involves patterns of control, manipulation, gaslighting, invalidation, or chronic criticism that erode a person’s sense of self over time. Many survivors question their own perceptions or minimize their experiences, especially when there are no visible injuries or when care and harm coexist.
In therapy, I offer a space to gently explore your experiences without pressure to label them before you’re ready. Our work focuses on restoring trust in your own reality, understanding how abusive dynamics take shape, and supporting your nervous system as it recovers from chronic relational stress. Therapy is paced, consent-centered, and grounded in compassion—helping you reconnect with your voice, rebuild boundaries, and move toward relationships that feel safe, mutual, and affirming.

Emotional Abuse
Dr. Stacie McPherson
Psychologist, M.A., Psy.D., Licensed Psychologist
Emotional abuse erodes your sense of self slowly—through criticism, manipulation, gaslighting, and control that can be hard to recognize while you're in it. Many of my clients come to therapy questioning their own reality or wondering if they're "overreacting." I help survivors untangle the confusion, name what happened, and begin the process of reclaiming their identity and self-worth. My approach is affirming, trauma-informed, and focused on helping you trust your own voice again.
