HUGH R STEWART III
Hypnotherapist, Ph.D., ACHt.
Emotional abuse can be overt or covert. Hypnotherapy, Heart Centered Breathwork, and Emotional Release work can get to the source of emotional abuse. Usually in a family dynamic where abuse and trauma are present, the obvious abuse from one of the caregivers is the first to do emotional release work on. The caregiver dishing out covert emotional abuse flies under the radar. They may be the one that does nothing to help the child for fear of what the other caregiver will do. That is just as damaging to the person but in a more subtle way. Emotional abuse also happens when one gets involved with a narcissist, sociopath, or psychopath with gas lighting, ghosting, etc. Another specialty of mine is working with clients that are in relationship with a narcissist & sociopaths as the abuse is so unsettling and covert that the client thinks its their fault for being emotionally abused. My job is to help you pull back the curtain to the Wizard of Oz just to find the real person behind the curtain and realize you don't deserve such manipulative treatment.

Peter D. Ruffini, Sex & Porn Addiction Expert
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdS, MA, LPC, LPCMH, ACS, EMDRPT-II, CSAT-C
I help individuals who have experienced emotional abuse, manipulation, or chronic invalidation—whether in childhood, relationships, or authority structures. These experiences often shape self-doubt, hypervigilance, and difficulty trusting one’s own perceptions. Therapy focuses on rebuilding internal stability, correcting distorted self-beliefs, and restoring a grounded sense of agency and self-respect.

Felicity Fong
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
I have worked with clients who experienced different forms of emotional abuse in childhood such as gaslighting and manipulation. I will explore on how it affects the client from childhood till adulthood. Together, we will navigate the complexities of the trauma itself while providing you a space to process the emotions which you did not get to grieve.
