Emotional Abuse
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.

Emotional Abuse
Liz Frings
Counsellor/Therapist, PG Diploma Person-Centred Psychotherapy. EMDR Accredited
Therapy offers a safe, non-judgmental space to begin healing from emotional abuse. A skilled therapist can help you recognize and name what happened to you, which is often the first crucial step. Many survivors struggle to identify emotional abuse because it's subtle and the abuser may have convinced them they're overreacting.
Through therapy, you can rebuild your sense of self. A therapist helps you reconnect with your own thoughts, feelings, and perceptions, validating your experiences and helping you trust yourself again. This process gradually undoes the damage caused by gaslighting and constant criticism.
Therapy also provides practical tools for recovery. You might learn techniques for managing anxiety and depression, setting healthy boundaries, and recognizing red flags in relationships. Cognitive-behavioral approaches can help you identify and challenge the negative beliefs about yourself that emotional abuse instilled. Trauma-focused therapies can address the deeper wounds and help you process difficult emotions in a safe way.
Perhaps most importantly, therapy offers something that emotional abuse takes away: a relationship built on respect, trust, and genuine care for your wellbeing. The therapeutic relationship itself becomes a model for what healthy connection looks like, helping you understand that you deserve to be treated with kindness and respect.
Recovery from emotional abuse isn't linear, and it takes time, but with support, it's absolutely possible to reclaim your sense of self, rebuild your confidence, and create a life free from the shadow of abuse.

Emotional Abuse
Anne-Lynn Teoh
Registered Psychotherapist, MoPC, BPsych (Hons), B.Sc. (Psych)
Emotional abuse can leave people adapting around another person's needs while losing connection with their own sense of safety, boundaries and self. I work with the attachment and protective patterns that can develop around these experiences, integrating somatic and IFS-informed approaches to support greater awareness, regulation and choice.
