Emotional Abuse
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.

Emotional Abuse
Ashlyn Parks
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC., MT-BC
It is crucial for me to make this clear - Emotional abuse is harmful. Equally (potentially moreso) harmful to physical abuse. Experiencing this type of abuse can create internal disconnections and turmoil. As a therapist it is my job to, once we establish a space that feels safe, encourage you as you reconnect with yourself.

Emotional Abuse
Peter D. Ruffini
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdS, MA, LPC, LPCMH, ACS, EMDRPT-II
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.

Emotional Abuse
Rising Phoenix Therapy - Dempsey Young, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Emotional abuse often is minimized or not even recognized at all. Which is a bunch of crap that I think we're socially programed to put up with. Screw that. It leaves deep wounds and can wreak havoc in all areas of life. I am very passionate and experienced in this area and want to help you through it.

Emotional Abuse
Philadelphia Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PsyD
Developing a close relationship with someone who displays narcissistic tendencies can result in trauma and pain. If you believe you have experienced narcissistic abuse from a parent, a partner, a friend, or another close entity, you may have noticed daily or near-daily dread, brain fog, panic, helplessness, and powerlessness. You may feel shame, self-doubt, and confusion alongside a tendency to blame yourself for all the ways this relationship feels wrong. You may feel that you’ve lost touch with your former confidence and vitality, as though both you and your world have shrunk under the shadow of this relationship. You may continue to feel deep longing and love for a person you know has harmed you.
At PCT, we are here to validate and witness your journey to healing. We will work with you to address the acute emotional and somatic symptoms of narcissistic abuse no matter where you are in your healing process. We will cultivate compassion for all the parts of you that have emerged throughout this struggle. We’ll walk with you as you gather the pieces of yourself and put them back together. We will help you build a strong foundation that can’t be rocked, and a home in yourself where you can know peace and acceptance.

Emotional Abuse
Sarah Sternlieb
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Growing up in an environment where your feelings weren’t seen or were dismissed can stay with you. You might second-guess yourself, feel on edge in relationships, or struggle to trust your own reactions. We work to understand where those patterns started and help you feel less on edge and more able to trust yourself over time.

Emotional Abuse
CHRISTIE BAUR PSYCHOTHERAPY
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC
Emotional abuse can leave deep, lingering wounds—confusion, self-doubt, anxiety, and a feeling of never being “enough.” Whether it came from a partner, family member, or past relationship, the impact often shows up long after the abuse has ended. You may find yourself questioning your reality, struggling with your self-worth, or feeling stuck in patterns you didn’t choose.
In therapy, we’ll work together to rebuild your sense of safety, autonomy, and trust in yourself. I help clients understand the dynamics of emotional abuse, recognize the subtle ways it affects thoughts and behavior, and develop boundaries that protect their peace. Our work is focused on healing, empowerment, and reconnecting you with the strengths that may have been overshadowed. You deserve relationships—and a life—where you feel respected, supported, and emotionally secure. I’m here to help you move toward that.
