Emotional Abuse
J. Rosalyn Diehl
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, LMHC, LPPC, LPC
Emotional abuse, especially narcissistic abuse, can be difficult to recognize and often leaves lasting effects on self-esteem, trust, and relationship patterns. These experiences may involve gaslighting, manipulation, chronic criticism, emotional invalidation, or feeling as though your needs and feelings are consistently minimized. Over time, you may find yourself questioning your perceptions, struggling with boundaries, or feeling unsure of your own needs. I help clients process these experiences, rebuild confidence and self-worth, and develop healthier, more secure ways of relating to themselves and others.

Emotional Abuse
Vida Mendez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW, EMDR II
Emotional abuse doesn’t always look obvious from the outside. It can involve criticism, manipulation, control, or being made to question your own thoughts and reactions. Over time, this can leave you doubting yourself, overthinking everything you say and do, or feeling like you’re always on edge.
These experiences don’t just stay in the past—they can continue to affect how you see yourself and respond in relationships. I help clients work through the impact of emotional abuse so it no longer shapes how they think, feel, or move through their lives. Using EMDR, we address the underlying experiences so you can regain clarity, confidence, and a stronger sense of yourself.
