Eve Palmatier
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Emotional abuse is perhaps the least respected aspect of abuse, and one of the most damaging. It is the emotional abuse which tears a person down and makes them accept mistreatment from others. It's subtle, complicated, and easy to overlook. I do everything I can to support my clients in understanding what loving and safe relationships look like, so they can recognize when they're being mistreated. I have also supported people who realized they could be emotionally abusive towards others, and decided they wanted to become a steadier and more supportive partner. Everyone is capable of change, and everyone deserves to be in relationships where they feel safe.

Carolyn Murphy, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Counseling Psychology
I have many years of experience working with clients who have experienced emotional abuse (and/or other types of abuse) in their relationships. Many people in this situation find it extremely beneficial to work with a therapist to help them cope as best they can with the trauma they have been experiencing and help navigate the paths they would like to take to move forward in their lives. I believe that the quality of the therapist/client relationship is paramount to our work together, and because of this I highly encourage you to choose a therapist that feels like a "good fit" for you. I always start with an initial consultation appointment where I can learn more about your background and reasons for seeking therapy, answer any questions you may have, and then plan together from there. Starting therapy can feel daunting or overwhelming for many people, so it is important that we work at a pace that feels comfortable to you. My approach to therapy is interactive and supportive, with an overall goal of increasing self-awareness and coping skills to help promote the kind of changes that you would like to see.

Licensed Professional Counselor, MA in Counseling, LCPC, LIMHP, LMHC
If you have been negatively impacted in relationships due to emotional abuse, there is help. If you are unsure whether you have experienced emotional abuse, here are some things to indicate you may have been in an abusive relationship: Feeling constantly on eggshells around the person, Second-guessing your own thoughts, memories, and perceptions; Being made to apologize for the gaslighter's mistakes; Constant criticism and belittlement; Isolation from friends and family. If you identify with these, contact my office to schedule an appointment to start the process of healing and finding freedom from the pain.

Michelle Emerick
Psychologist, PsyD
Any form of abuse is damaging and can leave lasting wounds. Too often we develop a tolerance for carrying these wounds. But carrying them comes at a cost to us as individuals. Therapy can help you understand the impact of carrying these extra burdens and learn how to do so more effectively, efficiently and with more compassion for yourself and what you have gone through.
