Emotional Abuse Therapy
Melanie Fuller
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
While our minds and bodies function to protect us, our survival strategies may not always produce long-term outcomes which suit how one prefers their life to look. Chronic experiences of the four f's (fight, flight, freeze, fawn) can knock one off balance to their valued, preferred way of living. In therapy, I will integrate my personal and professional training in DBT, to collaborate and form a treatment plan with you that aligns with your values and preferred story, to facilitate the life worth living that you deserve.

Ivan Pityk
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
Trauma can be either an accumulation of experiences or a specific traumatic event in a person's life that can make them feel stuck in that distressing experience. Traumatic events such as war, natural disasters, and violence can create long lasting effects. There can also be accumulated trauma from years of abuse, neglect, and dysfunctional relationships that can continue to affect us years after the abuse has ceased.
These traumatic events can undermine our perception of ourselves and others, making it difficult to trust the world as safe and yourself as competent and worthy of love. Additionally, flashbacks can involve all five senses, and can cause anxiety, panic attacks, and a generalized stress response.
However, with therapy, the journey to healing the past, understanding the present, and building a more meaningful future can begin.

Abuse is not always physical; in fact, most underreported abuse is emotional in nature. This encompasses everything from put downs to threats and manipulation, to living with someone who has narcissistic tendencies, to feeling like your emotions are not valid. It can start with our parents or come about in friendships, romantic relationships or even work relationships. If you feel you have experienced emotional abuse, please reach out to us and we can begin to address its impact on your life.

ASR Counselling and Psychotherapy, Attachment and Trauma-informed
Registered Social Worker, HonBA, BSW, MSW, RSW, EMDR Certified
Emotional abuse can feel like, "it hits you from behind." Sometimes taking years to fully realize its impact. Whether from childhood or adulthood, emotional abuse can leave you struggling with self doubt, feeling flawed, incomplete, not good enough. It can cause internal conflict where you may have even lost trust in yourself. The goal becomes to heal the inner conflict by addressing the parts of you that are wounded. To create unity inside where a sense of acceptance and self compassion is restored, or created.
