Emotional Abuse
Alisia Ives at Status Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC
If you are presenting to counseling for this issue, I recommend you do not tell the person you see as targeting you that you are seeking help. Emotional abuse may be a type of domestic violence. Or it may be a way a family member, partner, work colleague, boss, or friend interacts. There are different forms of emotional abuse and there may be things you can do. However, if this is persistent focused emotional abuse from someone -- and it is domestic violence -- it is not an anger problem, but a belief system that everything exists for their use. I will have a better idea when we talk. There may be things you can do, there may be plans you can make for changes. How much it affects you is key to planning.

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.

Emotional Abuse
Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
Under the guise of trauma focused therapy, the more subtle and therefore sometimes most confusing aspects of emotional abuse can become critical to unwind and understand both in the context of past childhood experiences with immature caregivers, how these experiences can inform the choice of romantic partners later in life and how to move past these patterns and expectations to allow for growth and freedom from relationships that detract rather than add.

Emotional Abuse
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.

Emotional Abuse
Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with adults who have been in relationships where their feelings, needs, or perceptions were dismissed, minimized, or used against them. Emotional abuse can be subtle and hard to name, especially when the relationship also included care, love, or periods of calm. You might relate to feeling confused about what was “real,” wondering if you were too sensitive or overreacting, replaying conversations in your head, or changing your behavior to avoid criticism, withdrawal, or the silent treatment. For many people, these patterns started young, in families where you had to stay tuned in to other people’s moods, keep the peace, or be “easy” so things didn’t get worse. Experiences like this can leave a long imprint: second‑guessing yourself, feeling responsible for other people’s emotions, bracing for criticism even when nothing is wrong, or working hard to stay acceptable so conflict doesn’t escalate. You may find yourself feeling small in relationships, even when you are competent and grounded in other areas of your life. Over time, these patterns can shape your sense of self, your nervous system, and what you believe you are allowed to expect from others. In our work together, we make space for what you went through and how it lives in your body and relationships now, and we explore what it means to move forward with more clarity, self‑trust, and choice.
