Mariya Garnet
Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist ( Qualifying)
Emotional abuse often leaves no visible evidence, which makes it harder to name and harder to trust your own experience of it. You may have grown up being told you were too sensitive, too much, or not enough. The confusion, self-doubt, and hypervigilance that follow are not character flaws. They are adaptations to an environment that was not safe to be yourself in. I work with the body to help you begin to trust your own perceptions again and reclaim the parts of yourself that went into hiding.

Do you feel wounded, frustrated, confused, misunderstood, depressed, anxious, or worthless any time you interact with your partner? Chances are high that your relationship is emotionally abusive.
Emotional or psychological abuse includes blaming, bullying, coercing, cursing, frightening, gaslighting, harassing, humiliating, isolating, manipulating, name-calling, threatening, or otherwise controlling another person.
Sometimes, it's overt, but it can also be covert in that it can be difficult to recognize. It can range from subtle contemptuous remarks or hostile humour that leave you questioning your self-worth to starting arguments to isolating you from others.
No matter what form it takes, this type of abuse can have devastating psychological consequences that can wear down your self-esteem and undermine your mental health.
I applaud you for taking it an important first step in considering getting help. As an abused partner, you can feel isolated, alone and scared. And it takes courage to reach out to and ask for support.
Know that I'm here for you. I'm listening and ready to help you put your emotionally abusive relationship into perspective while also providing tools for overcoming it. Know this - you don't have to deal with this alone, and it's NOT your fault!

St. John's is the capital of Newfoundland and Labrador and one of North America's oldest cities, perched on the Atlantic coast with a distinct cultural identity—Newfoundland's unique vernacular, music, and social traditions are a strong source of community pride and solidarity that provides genuine protective factors against isolation. The mental health landscape is shaped by the boom-and-bust character of the offshore oil industry that employs many residents, the generational grief from the cod fishery's collapse in 1992, and the seasonal affective challenges of a city known for fog, overcast skies, and long Atlantic winters. Memorial University's medical school contributes to the health workforce, and mental health services are provided through NL Health Services. Common therapy concerns include FIFO oil industry stress and relationship strain, economic anxiety tied to energy sector volatility, seasonal depression, and the grief of a community carrying significant intergenerational loss from the collapse of the fishery.
