Emotional abuse can leave invisible scars — confusion, self-doubt, and feeling like “maybe it wasn’t that bad.” It was. We help you identify abusive dynamics, rebuild trust in yourself, and learn how to set boundaries that keep you emotionally safe. You deserve relationships that feel mutual, respectful, and safe.

Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
Under the guise of trauma focused therapy, the more subtle and therefore sometimes most confusing aspects of emotional abuse can become critical to unwind and understand both in the context of past childhood experiences with immature caregivers, how these experiences can inform the choice of romantic partners later in life and how to move past these patterns and expectations to allow for growth and freedom from relationships that detract rather than add.

Dr. Rae Mazzei
Psychologist, PsyD
I specialize in helping adolescents and adults heal from the effects of emotional abuse and unhealthy relationship dynamics. Emotional abuse can leave lasting impacts on self-esteem, trust, emotional well-being, and one's sense of safety and identity. Individuals may struggle with anxiety, depression, self-doubt, people-pleasing, difficulty setting boundaries, or challenges in future relationships. Using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), EMDR, and trauma-informed care, I help clients process painful experiences, rebuild self-confidence, develop healthy boundaries, and foster resilience. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive environment where clients can heal, regain their sense of self, and move forward with greater strength and confidence.

Rising Phoenix Therapy - Dempsey Young, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Emotional abuse often is minimized or not even recognized at all. Which is a bunch of crap that I think we're socially programed to put up with. Screw that. It leaves deep wounds and can wreak havoc in all areas of life. I am very passionate and experienced in this area and want to help you through it.

Brent Peak
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Emotional abuse in childhood can leave invisible scars that shape the way you see yourself, your relationships, and the world. Maybe you grew up feeling like you had to earn love, constantly walking on eggshells to avoid criticism or rejection. You may still hear the voice of a parent who dismissed your feelings, called you “too sensitive,” or made you feel like nothing you did was good enough. Over time, you learned to question your own emotions, suppress your needs, and put others first—even when it hurts you. Now, as an adult, you might struggle with self-doubt, people-pleasing, or an inability to trust yourself and your decisions. Even when you logically know the past is over, the patterns of emotional abuse still play out in your relationships, your anxiety, and the way you talk to yourself.
But you don’t have to keep living in the shadow of your past. Healing from childhood emotional abuse isn’t just about understanding what happened—it’s about reclaiming the parts of yourself that were silenced, shamed, or ignored. Using Post-Induction Therapy (PIT), I help clients unravel the toxic messages they internalized in childhood, heal deep-seated shame, and rebuild self-worth from the inside out. Therapy allows you to set boundaries without guilt, trust your emotions instead of second-guessing them, and step into a life where you no longer feel small or invisible. You are not broken—you were conditioned to believe you were. It’s time to break free and reclaim the voice that was taken from you.
