Saffron Marriner
Counsellor/Therapist, MBACP (Accred)
I work with emotional abuse in a similar way to other types of abuse, working towards building self esteem and identifying and managing any triggers. Encouraging healthy boundaries, self care and building a safe support network. If this is narcissistic abuse I may provide further psycho education around this as well as directing the client to online resources and supportive, empowering literature. We may use parts work to work with healing any inner conflicts or harmful beliefs about self that have developed as a result of being emotionally abused.

Dr. Birte Nachtwey
Registered Psychotherapist, MD, CORST
Emotional abuse is common and often not named as such. If you are experiencing cruel behavior and verbal or even physical abuse do not hesitate to get help. You may think that you have to take it because you are in love and find many reasons why the other person is not as bad as they act or you may feel you don’t deserve better. You may even think that there is no way out. Please stop, rethink and let’s talk.
If you are abusing another person and repeatedly inflict pain , there may be part of you knowing that this is not smart to continue on like this for yourself and everybody involved. You can make a difference and achieve a different life. Let’s talk and face up to it.

Dr Jody Eiser
Therapist, Doctorate in Psychology
Emotional abuse often shapes how individuals see themselves, others, and the world around them. My work focuses on understanding these patterns through a trauma-informed lens and a focus on trauma endurance, recognising the ways people adapt to survive relational harm. Together, we explore these adaptations and support the process of reclaiming identity, boundaries, and self-worth.

Alexandra Perry
Counsellor/Therapist, N.C.F.E diploma in Counselling, B.A.C.P. registered, Cruse accredited,
This can happen to anyone, especially over a period of time. You can be left with the feeling you can no longer make decisions, feel guilty over things you do not need to feel guilty about. A deep lack of confidence and shame can be an effect of emotional abuse with suicidal thoughts and feelings.

Ruth Mark-Roland Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Post Grad Diploma in Psychotherapy, Foundation and Diploma in Group Analysis
I offer support for those who have experienced emotional abuse, including patterns of manipulation, control, invalidation, neglect, or chronic criticism within past or present relationships. Emotional abuse can often be difficult to identify, yet its impact may be long-lasting, affecting self-esteem, trust, boundaries, and the ability to feel safe in relationships or within oneself.
My approach is grounded in psychoanalytic and relational psychotherapy, which allows us to gently explore both the lived experience of emotional abuse and its deeper psychological impact. Together, we may work to understand how these relational dynamics have been internalised over time, and how they continue to shape emotional responses, beliefs about self-worth, and patterns in relationships.
I also integrate somatic awareness to support reconnection with the body, particularly where experiences of emotional abuse may have led to dissociation, anxiety, or chronic tension. This can help restore a sense of safety, grounding, and self-regulation. Psychoeducation may be used to support understanding of trauma responses and relational dynamics, helping to reduce self-blame and increase clarity. Where appropriate, I may also incorporate EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques / tapping) to support emotional processing and regulation.
Therapy offers a steady, collaborative space to process these experiences at your own pace, develop a stronger sense of boundaries, and begin to rebuild a more secure and compassionate relationship with yourself and others.

Poole is an affluent coastal town in Dorset adjacent to Bournemouth, home to one of the largest natural harbours in the world and a population skewed toward retirees, owner-occupiers, and commuters who value the quality of life of the Dorset coast. NHS mental health services are provided through Dorset Healthcare University NHS Foundation Trust, and the private therapy sector in Poole and the wider BCP (Bournemouth, Christchurch, and Poole) area is well-developed relative to the town's size. Common therapy concerns include ageing-related anxiety and adjustment, retirement transition, relationship difficulties, and bereavement, reflecting the older demographic of the area, alongside the more general concerns of families and working-age residents. The town's relatively high levels of overall affluence mask pockets of deprivation, particularly in some of the post-war residential areas away from the waterfront.
