Sharon Davern MSED, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed in Minnesota, Tennessee
Many times people have told me that being emotionally abused was harder to heal from than if they had been physically abused. When someone tears down our psyche and how we feel about ourselves the road to recovery is difficult and sometimes lengthy but the arrival at emotional restoration is incredibly rewarding.

Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
Emotional abuse leaves deep, invisible wounds that cause you to constantly second-guess your own reality, trust, and worth. If you have escaped a toxic relationship cycle but find yourself still walking on eggshells, struggling with intense self-doubt, or carrying a loud inner critic that isn’t even yours, you are experiencing the aftermath of emotional trauma. I specialize in helping survivors untangle the psychological fog left behind by manipulation and control. Using a trauma-informed lens, we will work to silence the shame, process the grief, and safely rebuild your confidence, boundaries, and trust in your own intuition

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.

Restored Counseling & Wellness Center, PLLC

At Restored, we specialize in helping survivors understand what happened to them, reclaim their sense of self-worth, and address the deep subconscious beliefs that emotional abuse so often instills. You deserve a space where your experience is fully seen, validated, and worked through at a pace that feels safe.

Rochester is a mid-sized Minnesota city whose entire character and economy are defined by the Mayo Clinic—one of the world's most famous and comprehensive medical institutions—and the mental health landscape here is unlike almost any other city of comparable size, shaped by the needs of a huge medical workforce, international patients and their families, and a community organized around the pursuit of medical excellence. Mayo Clinic's own behavioral health and psychiatry programs are among the most sophisticated in the world, and the city's medical culture creates both extraordinary resources and particular kinds of stress—caregiver burnout, compassion fatigue, the emotional weight of working with critically ill patients, and the psychological challenges of being far from home for patients receiving long-term care. A private therapy sector serves the permanent population and medical workforce, and demand for therapists who understand the specific stresses of high-performance medical careers is consistently high. Common therapy concerns include caregiver burnout and compassion fatigue, medical professional identity and well-being, patient and family adjustment during extended treatment, anxiety, and the particular loneliness of patients and families who have traveled from around the world to receive care far from their support networks.
