Emotional Abuse
Sumer Statler Aeed
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Emotional abuse is an often hidden or hard to pinpoint type of abuse that may occur in our adult relationships, those with our parents growing up, or both. One definition of emotional abuse includes psychological (i.e. non-physical) behaviors such as threats, insults, constant monitoring or “checking in,” controlling, shaming, humiliation, intimidation, isolation or ignoring behaviors.
You may also be dealing with childhood emotional abuse which can be defined as, 'sustained, repetitive, inappropriate emotional response to the child’s experience of emotion and its accompanying expressive behavior’. Healing emotional abuse allows us to create new blueprints for moving forward with new outcomes and to create new relationships with ourselves and others.
Healing involves speaking our truth, learning about connecting to our emotions, boundary setting, connecting to our bodies and beginning to create new ways of building loving safe relationships with ourselves and others. Depending upon your own history we may make use of variety of tools to heal, including somatic work, trauma work, journaling, boundary setting, inner child work, family systems work, art therapy, or many other paths that can lead to reclaiming your truth.

Emotional Abuse
Dina Hijazi
Psychologist, PhD, CSAT
Experiencing emotional abuse can leave deep, lasting wounds that aren’t always visible—but they are real and valid. In therapy, I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can begin to untangle the effects of gaslighting, control, and chronic invalidation. Together, we’ll focus on restoring your sense of self, establishing healthy boundaries, and rebuilding confidence using trauma-informed techniques and self-empowerment practices. You deserve to feel safe, respected, and whole again.

Emotional Abuse
James C. Carpenter, PhD, ABPP
Psychologist, PhD (Clinical Psychology, Ohio State U), Board Certified in Clinical Psychology (ABPP), PSYPACT
Many relationships are caught up in punishing cycles of control and abuse. When working with both parties in the room, I try to understand each one's point of view and experience and find fresh ways to represent each person to the other with words that relieve the impasses and develop alternative patterns to replace the emotional habits of dominance and punishment. When only one person is present (usually the one more victimized) I try to foster the means and courage to escape if the victimizer is unwilling to make real changes.

Emotional Abuse
Carrie Gauthier
Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCHt
Emotional abuse is often a pattern that is repeated throughout life until the root cause memory is recovered and the inner child is able to release long-suppressed emotions and express them to the antagonist. This is done in the childhood regression in a safe and loving way. Once the inner child gets to express the unmet needs, the weight is lifted, the emotions are processed, and they no longer play on a loop. You are now free to move on and choose peaceful, liberating alternatives. Together we customize the hypnotic programming for this as well as any motivational work required. I empower you with a tool you can use every morning to go from dread to inspiration in only a few minutes and face the day with joy instead of fear. Ultimately, we signal to your nervous system that you are safe again; safe in your own mind and comfortable in your own skin. We reinforce emotional regulation and give you tools you can apply in minutes to regain emotinal equilibrium and return your body to homeostasis, should you feel triggered or overwhelmed.
