Toronto, Ontario therapist: Mariya Garnet, therapist
Emotional Abuse

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.

Vancouver, British Columbia therapist: Romana Hrivnakova, registered psychotherapist
Emotional Abuse

Romana Hrivnakova

Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, RCC
Emotional abuse can be deeply isolating because the wounds are often invisible, yet the impact on your sense of self is profound. With over 15 years of experience in the mental health field, I understand how persistent gaslighting, criticism, and control can cause your 'parts' to shut down or live in a state of constant self-doubt. My approach is to help you rebuild the internal trust that was eroded in your relationship. We look at the survival strategies you developed to cope with the unpredictability of your environment and work to strengthen your own 'inner voice.' Together, we create a compassionate path toward reclaiming your reality, your boundaries, and your confidence.

Toronto, Ontario therapist: Lauren Kalvari, registered social worker
Emotional Abuse

Lauren Kalvari

Registered Social Worker, PhD, MSW, RSW
Emotional abuse can gradually erode self-trust, confidence, emotional stability, and one’s sense of reality. I support adults navigating manipulation, coercive dynamics, fear, shame, relational confusion, and the emotional aftermath of psychologically harmful relationships. As survivors begin to gain distance from abusive dynamics, space often emerges for deeper healing, clarity, and reconnection with self-trust. In many cases, their experiences have been dismissed or minimized — sometimes by religious authorities, family members, or the broader social system surrounding the abuser — leaving them feeling silenced, confused, and unsure of their own reality.

Toronto, Ontario therapist: Collaborative Care Therapy, registered psychotherapist
Emotional Abuse

Collaborative Care Therapy

Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Emotional abuse, with its insidious and often hidden impact, can leave deep and lasting scars. At Collaborative Care Therapy, we approach the healing process from emotional abuse with a compassionate, integrative, relational, and trauma-informed perspective, recognizing the nuanced ways in which this abuse affects individuals. In our therapy sessions, we create a safe and nurturing environment where you can begin to unpack the effects of emotional abuse. We understand that this form of abuse can undermine self-esteem, distort self-perception, and create a lingering sense of fear or inadequacy. Our goal is to help you recognize and challenge these harmful internalized messages and beliefs. Our treatment approach is multifaceted, employing evidence-based methods tailored to your individual healing journey. We often use cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to address negative thought patterns and beliefs instilled by emotional abuse. In addition, techniques like mindfulness can help in developing present-moment awareness and reducing anxiety, while emotion-focused therapy can assist in understanding and regulating complex emotions that arise from such experiences. Being trauma-informed, we pay special attention to the traumatic aspects of emotional abuse. We work collaboratively with you to rebuild trust, not only in the therapeutic relationship but also within yourself. Our focus is on empowering you to regain a sense of control and self-worth. Through our phased approach to therapy, we aim to help you move from a place of hurt and confusion to one of clarity and strength. This journey involves learning to set healthy boundaries, improving self-compassion, and fostering positive, respectful relationships in the future. Our virtual therapy sessions offer the convenience and comfort of accessing support from your environment, ensuring continuous and personalized care. With Collaborative Care Therapy, embark on a path to healing from emotional abuse and rediscover a sense of self-worth and confidence.
