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.

Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Emotional abuse often comes in the form of what others have said to you and have resulted in deep negative self beliefs. Through IFS, we will find those parts of you that still hold those beliefs and offer to unburden them, providing you with relief from symptoms of depression and anxiety.

Dina Hijazi
Psychologist, PhD, CSAT
Experiencing emotional abuse can leave deep, lasting wounds that aren’t always visible—but they are real and valid. In therapy, I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can begin to untangle the effects of gaslighting, control, and chronic invalidation. Together, we’ll focus on restoring your sense of self, establishing healthy boundaries, and rebuilding confidence using trauma-informed techniques and self-empowerment practices. You deserve to feel safe, respected, and whole again.

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.

Probably emotional neglect or the lack of adequately nurturing is the least recognized and validated for of developmental or marital abuse. Looking at attachment style can often help you to understand how this neglect occurred and what you need to heal. Maybe negative thoughts intrude on your thought process. There are many approaches that work for this, depending upon your needs.
