Meghan Hanes
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
The effects of emotional abuse can linger long after the relationship has ended, often leaving individuals questioning themselves, struggling with self-worth, or feeling disconnected from their own instincts and needs. Therapy provides a safe space to process these experiences, rebuild trust in yourself, and develop healthier patterns moving forward.

I work with clients who have experienced emotionally abusive or invalidating relationships, in childhood or adulthood.

Lesley Lacny
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.A, Psych.R, C.Psych, LPC
Emotional abuse can be subtle and difficult to identify, often showing up as manipulation, criticism, gaslighting, control, or patterns that leave you feeling confused, diminished, anxious, or unsure of yourself. Over time, it can impact self-esteem, trust, and your sense of reality in relationships.
I provide therapy for individuals recovering from emotional abuse to help you make sense of your experiences and the impact they’ve had on your thoughts, emotions, and nervous system. Together, we will explore the deeper patterns that developed in these dynamics and how they continue to show up in your life.
The focus is on rebuilding self-trust, strengthening boundaries, and reconnecting with your sense of clarity, stability, and self-worth.

I have extensive experience with adult children of emotionally immature parents. Or clients who have had friends, family members who have emotionally abused them. I often incorporate EMDR to help clients cope with this trauma.

Tycee Belcastro
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT, CSTIP
Wondering if you’re in—or have been in—an abusive relationship can feel like trying to untangle a knot in the dark. The hurt is real, whether it’s from clear-cut harm, like physical or sexual abuse, or from subtler wounds that leave you questioning your feelings. It’s confusing when the evidence isn’t obvious, and you might wonder if it’s them, or if it’s old baggage shaping how you see things. That uncertainty is heavy, but you’re not alone in it. With gentle guidance, we can work together to shine a light on what’s happening—sorting through your experiences, feelings, and patterns with care. Think of it as clearing the path. I’m here to help you build the skills to find clarity, be here for you as you work through the impacts and summon the courage to face your truth, and navigate the challenges of your relationships with strength and self-compassion. You’ve got the spark to move forward, and I’ll walk beside you every step of the way.

Portland has a strong therapy culture deeply intertwined with its progressive values, with high demand for therapists who specialize in LGBTQ+ identity, non-traditional relationship structures, trauma, and social-justice-informed approaches to mental health. The city's visible homelessness crisis and political tensions have contributed to significant community-level anxiety, and therapists here frequently address activist burnout, moral injury, and eco-anxiety alongside more traditional presenting concerns. Oregon Health & Science University provides major institutional mental health resources, complemented by a dense network of independent practitioners across the inner eastside, Hawthorne, and Northwest Portland. Oregon's relatively permissive telehealth laws make it particularly easy to access care from across the state.
