Fufan Chiang
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
When you are constantly made to feel like everything is your fault, you start absorbing that blame, losing your sense of reality, and struggling to set basic boundaries. You might find yourself compulsively people-pleasing, overextending your energy, and feeling entirely responsible for your partner's emotions just to keep the peace. Here, you will find a safe, entirely nonjudgmental space to heal from the invisible, heavy toll of these toxic dynamics. We will work to release the internalized self-criticism, restore your boundaries, and help you reconnect with your authentic self.

Chrissie Chua- Ly van manh
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC-D, LPC
I have 10 years of experience supporting clients who have experienced emotional abuse in a variety of contexts, including intimate relationships and family systems. Emotional abuse can be deeply damaging, often leaving individuals feeling confused, isolated, self-doubting, and disconnected from their own sense of reality and worth. It can be especially complex when it occurs within relationships that are ongoing or difficult to fully separate from.
Much of my work in this area focuses on helping clients make sense of toxic or unhealthy relational dynamics and begin to name what has happened to them with greater clarity and self-trust. For many clients, this also includes exploring parental emotional abuse and the lasting impact it can have on identity, attachment, and self-esteem, particularly when cultural or family expectations may influence how relationships are maintained or understood.
I approach this work with deep care and validation, with the intention of helping clients feel less alone and more grounded in their own experience. Together, we work toward rebuilding a sense of internal safety, strengthening self-trust, and moving out of the confusion and darkness that emotional abuse can create.
Healing in this space often involves clarifying boundaries in relationships and exploring what connection or distance may feel healthiest and most supportive for the client. These decisions are deeply personal and can be complex, and I remain present with clients as they navigate them at their own pace.
Ultimately, this work involves both understanding what has happened and actively rebuilding from within- developing healthier boundaries, reconnecting with one’s voice, and cultivating a stronger, more compassionate relationship with oneself.
