Emotional Abuse
Melanie Collins
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPC, LCMHC, Coach
Emotional abuse can be difficult to recognize, particularly when criticism, control, manipulation, gaslighting, or coercion have gradually become normalized within a relationship. I help clients make sense of what they have experienced, rebuild trust in their own perceptions, and understand the patterns that may continue affecting self-worth, boundaries, and relationships. Therapy provides space to process the impact of these experiences while developing greater autonomy, self-trust, and confidence in deciding what healthy relationships look like for you.

Emotional Abuse
Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with adults who have been in relationships where their feelings, needs, or perceptions were dismissed, minimized, or used against them. Emotional abuse can be subtle and hard to name, especially when the relationship also included care, love, or periods of calm. You might relate to feeling confused about what was “real,” wondering if you were too sensitive or overreacting, replaying conversations in your head, or changing your behavior to avoid criticism, withdrawal, or the silent treatment. For many people, these patterns started young, in families where you had to stay tuned in to other people’s moods, keep the peace, or be “easy” so things didn’t get worse. Experiences like this can leave a long imprint: second‑guessing yourself, feeling responsible for other people’s emotions, bracing for criticism even when nothing is wrong, or working hard to stay acceptable so conflict doesn’t escalate. You may find yourself feeling small in relationships, even when you are competent and grounded in other areas of your life. Over time, these patterns can shape your sense of self, your nervous system, and what you believe you are allowed to expect from others. In our work together, we make space for what you went through and how it lives in your body and relationships now, and we explore what it means to move forward with more clarity, self‑trust, and choice.
