Katie Dixon
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
Experiences of emotional abuse can affect your sense of safety, self-worth, trust, and ability to feel secure in relationships. Therapy can provide a supportive space to process these experiences, recognize unhealthy relationship patterns, and begin rebuilding your sense of self. My approach is compassionate and collaborative, helping you reconnect with your strengths, rebuild self-trust, and create a life that holds new possibilities at a pace that feels right for you. If you have struggled with controlling behaviors, anger, or patterns in relationships that have caused harm, therapy can help identify these patterns, help you to be accountable for your actions and develop healthier ways of managing emotions and navigating conflict. When abusive behaviors are still present in a relationship, the issues must be addressed in individual therapy first and foremost, with safety as the priority.

Dr. Berkeley Antonioli
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, PhD, LCSW, LCSW-C, MEd
The majority of my training and clinical work has been focused on helping adults recover from early traumatic experiences. Often, the traumas my clients are working through is rooted in early relational and/or sexual experiences that leave a lasting impact on their formative developmental years and beyond. I have found that these early experiences often impact how clients have learned to operate and survive in relationships. Many have learned to defer to others, feeling like a burden if they consider and try to communicate their needs or limits. These folks have learned to betray themselves in order to preserve their attachments, often leading to tolerating emotionally abusive behavior. These clients often feel resentment, burnout, anxiety and depression, and are working on stepping into their power and agency to detach from abusive relationships.
