Emotional Abuse
Barbara Freedman
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor
My experience with offering counselling to Victim Service Clients afforded me the opportunity to collaborate with victims of emotional abuse daily. .Emotional abuse denotes any nonphysical behavior or attitude that is designed to control, intimidate, subjugate, demean, punish, or isolate another person. Emotional abuse is not only the most pervasive, but the least understood form of maltreatment. Its victims are often dismissed simply because their wounds are not visible. So, the pain and torment of those who experience "only" emotional abuse is often trivialized which is dangerously wrong. Emotional abuse scars the heart and damages the soul. Like cancer, it does its most deadly work internally. And, like cancer, it can metastasize if untreated.” Because emotional abuse comes in so many forms (and so many disguises), recognition is often the first key to effective response. I have provided education and awareness involving the emotional and social complexities in ending such a relationship. By imparting these individuals with self -acceptance, this can have an enormous impact on the creation or resolution of their internal struggles which allows them to further grow and develop their self identity. Although leaving any relationship often involves a mourning process, I have empowered many clients to do just so.

Emotional Abuse
Hardie Counselling & BrainWorX, Inc
Registered Psychotherapist, BFA, B.Ed, MA, CPC, CCPCPR, CCAC, ICADC, CSAT, CCTP, CCTACP
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!

Emotional Abuse
Kennedy McLean Counselling & Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist
Emotional abuse is often overlooked. When we can't see wounds, it is easier to ignore or justify them. We understand the trauma of living with or encountering emotional abuse and the negative impacts it can have on our lives. We are empathic to this process and would be happy to help you process your experiences of abuse and find hope and empowerment to move forward.
