Emotional Abuse Therapy therapists in San Elizario, Texas TX
Catrina Drinning-Davis
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S
Emotional abuse is challenging. It can be difficult to identify while dealing with it directly. Gaslighting is real and you may be experiencing this. You may also be experiencing other manipulation, cheating, financial abuse, using kids against you, etc. Emotional abuse can cover a lot of things. You and your therapist can explore what is happening and help you to identify and address it.

Ben Dickstein
Psychologist, PhD
Many of the trauma-survivors I work with tell me that the most damaging aspect of their traumas were the many negative messages that they received about themselves from abusers. Emotional abuse often leaves deeply rooted self-doubt and self-loathing in its wake. I use some of the best evidence-based trauma practices available to help survivors of emotional abuse identify and challenge these negative messages, in turn increasing self-confidence and optimism.

Emily Sledge
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LMSW
Did someone try to make you believe that something is wrong with you, that you're the problem and not okay? Did they call you names and shut you down? WORDS DO HURT! The impacts of emotional abuse cant be seen on your skin; the damage exists behind the forced smile. You dont have to force your smile here or pretend to be okay.
It wasnt okay what they said and what they did that slowly eroded your self-esteem and made you question every decision you make. The therapy I provide for the empacts of emotional abuse is two fold - heal the anxiety that resulted from the abuse, and help you relearn that you are worthy, valued and loved.
