Sarah Gersick
Psychologist, Ph.D.
When we experience abuse, it creates patterns that make it hard to cope with new stressors in a healthy way. It helps to have a place to talk through what is happening in your life today while also working to understand how old wounds are interfering in the present. I am an experienced psychologist who can help you process the trauma with psychodynamic work and EMDR, so you can reduce the distress you are feeling now, and make deep changes that lead to better coping in the future.

Maggie Reynolds
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, EMDR Certified, NCC
Emotional abuse can leave lasting wounds that no one can see, but you feel every day. It often leads to self-doubt, feeling “never good enough,” second-guessing yourself, and living on edge trying to keep others happy. I know from personal experience how confusing and painful it can be to make sense of what you lived through, what you were told about yourself, and how you were treated. Healing is possible. In therapy, we’ll work to understand the dynamics of emotional abuse, why it happens, and how it impacts your nervous system, identity, and relationships. Most importantly, we’ll focus on helping you reclaim your voice, rebuild self-trust, and set boundaries that support healthier connections moving forward.

Louis Hoffman
Psychologist, PhD
Emotional abuse can profoundly affect our sense of self-acceptance, trust, emotional well-being, and ability to form healthy relationships. Its effects are often difficult to recognize, particularly when patterns of manipulation, criticism, control, or invalidation have developed gradually over time. I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their experiences, process painful emotions, and begin to rebuild trust in themselves and others. My approach emphasizes understanding the impact of these experiences without defining individuals by what they have endured. I work with clients toward strengthening personal boundaries, reclaiming autonomy, fostering self-compassion, and developing healthier, more authentic relationships.
