Emotional Abuse
Lincoln Park Psychology, Inc
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologists, LCPC, LPC, LCSW, LSW, CADC, AMFT
Abuse can sometimes go unidentified for long periods of time, even by the victim. Not only can this impact levels of safety and trust in others and the world, but it can also impact how one trusts the self to make decisions and grasp reality. As is human nature, we develop mechanisms to help us survive trauma, which is a wonderful human ability. However, delineating between reality, survival responses, typical emotional needs, etc can be daunting once one has experienced and reacted to a trauma. We are here to help you create your own sense of safety and promote a true understanding of the self through mind-body awareness (where appropriate).

Emotional Abuse
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.

Emotional Abuse
MindOverHealing Therapies
Hypnotherapist, CHt
Hypnotherapy can play a valuable role in the treatment of emotional abuse by helping individuals process and heal from traumatic experiences. Through guided relaxation and suggestion, hypnotherapists assist clients in accessing subconscious memories and emotions linked to abuse, allowing them to reframe negative beliefs and regain a sense of self-worth. This approach can reduce anxiety, improve emotional regulation, and foster resilience, making it a supportive complement to traditional therapies for emotional abuse recovery.

Emotional Abuse
Dr. Joe Rustum
Psychologist, PsyD, License Psychologist
I help clients process the impact of emotional abuse, including criticism, manipulation, gaslighting, control, invalidation, and patterns that have caused them to question themselves or lose confidence. In therapy, we work on understanding what happened, rebuilding self-trust, strengthening boundaries, and reducing the guilt, shame, anxiety, or confusion that can follow emotionally harmful relationships. My goal is to help clients feel clearer, more grounded, and more confident in their ability to protect their well-being.
