Barbara Freedman
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor
My experience with offering counselling to Victim Service Clients afforded me the opportunity to collaborate with victims of emotional abuse daily. .Emotional abuse denotes any nonphysical behavior or attitude that is designed to control, intimidate, subjugate, demean, punish, or isolate another person. Emotional abuse is not only the most pervasive, but the least understood form of maltreatment. Its victims are often dismissed simply because their wounds are not visible. So, the pain and torment of those who experience "only" emotional abuse is often trivialized which is dangerously wrong. Emotional abuse scars the heart and damages the soul. Like cancer, it does its most deadly work internally. And, like cancer, it can metastasize if untreated.” Because emotional abuse comes in so many forms (and so many disguises), recognition is often the first key to effective response. I have provided education and awareness involving the emotional and social complexities in ending such a relationship. By imparting these individuals with self -acceptance, this can have an enormous impact on the creation or resolution of their internal struggles which allows them to further grow and develop their self identity. Although leaving any relationship often involves a mourning process, I have empowered many clients to do just so.

Alessia Zita | Zita Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapy (Qualifying)
Do you often feel on edge, confused, or unsure of yourself in relationships? Many people who have experienced emotional abuse learn to question their feelings, minimize their pain, or adapt themselves to avoid conflict or rejection. You may have been told you were “too sensitive”, made to doubt your perceptions, or felt responsible for keeping the peace—leaving you disconnected from your own needs and sense of self.
These responses are not weaknesses. They are protective strategies that developed in environments where safety, validation, or consistency were missing. What matters is how these patterns continue to shape your life now. Together, we can gently process your experiences, rebuild trust in your inner voice, and work toward feeling more grounded, empowered, and lighter in your relationships. You adapted for a reason. Let’s explore why—and what healing can look like now.

Montreal's bilingual, bicultural identity shapes its therapy landscape, with many therapists offering services in both French and English to serve the city's English-speaking communities alongside Quebec's Francophone majority. The city's large student population across McGill, Concordia, and Université de Montréal generates consistent demand for therapists addressing academic stress, young adult transitions, and identity. Montreal's arts and creative sector also sustains demand for therapists who understand the pressures of creative careers, financial precarity, and performance anxiety. The Douglas Mental Health University Institute provides major institutional mental health research and care, complemented by the city's extensive private and CLSC-based therapy network.
