Rachele Epp
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, EMDR Certified Therapist™
If you have experienced emotional abuse, you likely have an internal critic that is constantly telling you that you don't measure up. Through CBT and EMDR therapy, we can change these messages, replacing negative beliefs with a healthier self-esteem.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with adults who have been in relationships where their feelings, needs, or perceptions were dismissed, minimized, or used against them. Emotional abuse can be subtle and hard to name, especially when the relationship also included care, love, or periods of calm. You might relate to feeling confused about what was “real,” wondering if you were too sensitive or overreacting, replaying conversations in your head, or changing your behavior to avoid criticism, withdrawal, or the silent treatment. For many people, these patterns started young, in families where you had to stay tuned in to other people’s moods, keep the peace, or be “easy” so things didn’t get worse. Experiences like this can leave a long imprint: second‑guessing yourself, feeling responsible for other people’s emotions, bracing for criticism even when nothing is wrong, or working hard to stay acceptable so conflict doesn’t escalate. You may find yourself feeling small in relationships, even when you are competent and grounded in other areas of your life. Over time, these patterns can shape your sense of self, your nervous system, and what you believe you are allowed to expect from others. In our work together, we make space for what you went through and how it lives in your body and relationships now, and we explore what it means to move forward with more clarity, self‑trust, and choice.

Kate Mageau (she/her)
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, ADHD-CCSP, NCC, CIMHP, C-DBT
I am an emotional abuse and domestic violence survivor and an expert in this therapy field. I am teaching a course to other therapists on it this spring! I have training through my degree and domestic violence advocacy agencies, and the WA- DV 101 training certification. I have a book series, a workbook, and a course on this to help you learn and heal through the methods that work best for you. I currently only have these self-led supports for this.

Allen Shamon
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I help survivors understand the dynamics of emotional abuse, including how manipulation, gaslighting, and other tactics are used to exert control and power over them. By recognizing and naming the abusive behaviors, survivors can begin to dismantle the internalized beliefs and self-blame that often accompany emotional abuse.
