Emotional Abuse
Sabina Mauro
Psychologist, PsyD
Emotional abuse does not always leave visible scars, but its impact can shape how you see yourself, navigate relationships, and experience the world. Over time, criticism, manipulation, invalidation, or controlling behaviors can lead you to question your own perceptions, needs, and worth. My work focuses on helping individuals recognize these patterns, understand how past experiences may influence present relationships, and begin rebuilding trust in themselves. Through a compassionate, trauma-informed approach, we work toward strengthening boundaries, restoring confidence, and reconnecting with the parts of yourself that may have been overshadowed by the experiences of abuse. Healing is not about changing who you are, but rediscovering who you have always been.

Emotional Abuse
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.

Ashlyn Parks
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC., MT-BC.
It is crucial for me to make this clear - Emotional abuse is harmful. 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. Together we can identify how the impacts of the abuse impact you presently, and work with what arises.

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.

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
When you grow up with a parent who frequently criticizes you or makes you question your own feelings, their voice can be hard to leave behind when childhood is over.
Now, one critical comment can stick with you for hours. You replay what was said and wonder whether they were right about you.
I use EMDR therapy to help adults work through experiences of emotional abuse from childhood so what happened has less power over how they feel about themselves today.
