Emotional Abuse
Rachel Miller
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT
Emotional abuse can be subtle, confusing, and deeply damaging over time. I work with individuals and couples to identify harmful patterns and power dynamics, name what has been happening, and understand the impact on self-worth and the relationship. My approach supports accountability, boundary-setting, repair, and more intentional, respectful ways of relating moving forward.

Using evidence-based trauma therapies, you can learn to release shame, rebuild inner strength, and reclaim your authentic voice.
