Emotional Abuse
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.

Zach Ramsey
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC-S, CSAT
I work with individuals who have experienced emotional abuse, including patterns of control, manipulation, gaslighting, and chronic invalidation. My approach focuses on helping clients make sense of their experiences, rebuild trust in their own perceptions, and understand the impact these dynamics have had on their identity and relationships. I support clients in developing clear boundaries, recognizing unhealthy patterns, and responding to manipulative behavior with greater confidence and intention. Together, we work to strengthen self-worth, reduce self-doubt, and create a greater sense of safety, autonomy, and stability moving forward.

Emotional Abuse
Michael J. Salas
Counselor/Therapist, PsyD, LPC-S, LCDC, CSAT, CST
Emotional abuse can be hard to name, especially when there’s no yelling, hitting, or clear line that’s been crossed. It often shows up as manipulation, gaslighting, control, or constant criticism—leaving you doubting your own feelings, questioning your worth, or walking on eggshells in your own relationships.
If you're starting to wonder whether what you’ve experienced was abuse, or if you're trying to heal from the impact of someone who chipped away at your confidence over time, I can help. You don’t have to justify your pain or prove that it was “bad enough.” If it hurt you, that’s enough.
In therapy, we’ll work to rebuild your self-trust, identify the patterns you’ve internalized, and create a new sense of safety in your relationships—with others and with yourself. Healing from emotional abuse is possible, and you deserve support that helps you move forward without shame.

Emotional Abuse
Samia Geraghty
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
Emotional abuse is a pattern of behavior that harms your self-worth and confidence. It does not leave physical scars, but the emotional damage is deeply real. Control, disrespect, constant criticism, and gaslighting are just some of the behaviors you might experience in an emotionally abusive situation. Whether it's past or current abuse, healing is possible and you don't have to carry this burden by yourself.

Emotional Abuse
Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in the treatment of emotional abuse, my approach prioritizes creating a safe and validating therapeutic environment where individuals can explore their experiences and heal from the effects of abuse. Through trauma-informed therapy modalities such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and trauma-focused approaches, I help clients process their emotions, challenge distorted beliefs, and develop coping skills to rebuild their sense of self-worth and autonomy. Additionally, I provide psychoeducation about the dynamics of emotional abuse and support clients in setting boundaries, enhancing self-care practices, and accessing resources for safety and support. Collaboration with other professionals, such as legal advocates or social workers, may also be integrated into the treatment plan to address practical needs and ensure holistic healing. My goal is to empower individuals to reclaim their agency, cultivate resilience, and thrive in relationships characterized by respect and empathy.

Carrollton is a Dallas-area suburb with an unusually diverse character for the DFW metro, home to one of the largest Korean-American communities in Texas—with a well-established Koreatown corridor—as well as significant Vietnamese, Indian, and Chinese communities, creating a demand for multilingual and culturally competent therapy that is distinctive for a suburban Texas city. Korean-speaking, Vietnamese-speaking, and other Asian-language therapists are sought after in Carrollton, and practices specializing in the mental health needs of first and second-generation immigrant communities are an important part of the local landscape. Common therapy concerns include intergenerational family dynamics, acculturation and cultural identity, academic pressure in communities with high educational expectations, immigration stress, and the challenges of navigating bicultural identity in a conservative Texas suburban context. The proximity to Dallas's much larger therapy market gives residents access to the full breadth of specialties available in the metroplex.
