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.

Dr. Kelsi Clayson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Emotional abuse can be difficult to recognize, yet its impact runs deep. Maybe you’ve been made to feel small, controlled, or constantly second-guess yourself. Perhaps you’ve been told that your feelings don’t matter, that you’re “too sensitive,” or that you’re the problem. Over time, this kind of treatment can erode your self-esteem, leave you feeling trapped, and make it hard to trust yourself or others. Even if the abuse is in the past, its effects can linger in the way you see yourself and navigate relationships.
Healing from emotional abuse is about reclaiming your voice, your worth, and your sense of self. Together, we’ll explore the patterns that have shaped your experience, rebuild self-trust, and help you step out of survival mode into a life where you feel empowered and in control. You deserve to be heard, respected, and valued—not just by others, but by yourself. It’s possible to move forward, and you don’t have to do it alone.

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.
