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.

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.

Kristin Wright
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Were you criticized heavily as a child? Did you feel worthless growing up? Or have you been in a relationship where you were gas lighted and treated poorly. Emotional abuse is often a silent form of trauma that most don't recognize until they are much older. However, it can lead to low self-esteem, perfectionism, struggles in relationships later in life, and even PTSD. With many years of experiences working with abuse survivors, I strive to create a safe environment for them to process their traumatic past and learn to love the strong and courageous person that they are.

Shawna Damiani
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Emotional abuse can be one of the hardest things to name — because it so rarely looks the way people expect abuse to look. There are no visible marks. There are no dramatic moments that are easy to point to. Instead, there is a slow erosion. A relationship that made you question your memory, your perception, your worth. A voice in your head that sounds a lot like someone else's. A version of yourself you barely recognize anymore.
Maybe you've been told you're too sensitive. Maybe you spent years walking on eggshells, managing someone else's moods, shrinking yourself to keep the peace. Maybe you left and still find yourself defending them — or wondering if what happened was really that bad. That confusion isn't weakness. It's one of the most common and painful hallmarks of emotional abuse.
At Love Let Out, we work with survivors who are trying to find their footing after relationships that left them doubting themselves. We understand the complicated grief that comes with loving someone who hurt you. We understand why it's hard to leave, hard to stay gone, and hard to trust yourself again afterward.
Our work is trauma-informed and goes at your pace. We won't push you to label your experience before you're ready or tell you how to feel about the person who hurt you. We will help you reconnect with your own sense of reality, rebuild your confidence from the inside out, and begin to trust yourself again — maybe for the first time in a long time.
What happened to you was real. And you deserve a space where that is never questioned.

Irving sits at the heart of the Las Colinas corporate corridor — home to the headquarters of McKesson, Caterpillar, Celanese, and dozens of other major companies — creating consistent demand for therapists experienced with executive stress, workplace culture, and the psychological cost of high-stakes corporate careers. The city's large South Asian and Korean professional communities generate significant demand for culturally competent therapists who understand bicultural identity, immigration stress, and the intersection of professional ambition with family expectations. Baylor Scott & White Medical Center Irving provides institutional mental health resources, with the broader Dallas-Fort Worth metro therapy ecosystem accessible to residents across the city. Irving's role as a corporate suburb rather than a city with strong neighborhood identity means social isolation and community-building are recurring therapy themes.
