Alina Hovsoyan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I support clients experiencing emotional abuse by providing a safe, validating, and nonjudgmental space where they can explore their experiences and the impact on their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I help clients recognize patterns of manipulation, control, and verbal or psychological harm, and understand how these experiences affect self-esteem, boundaries, and relationships. I teach coping strategies to manage stress, anxiety, and trauma responses, and work with clients to develop healthy boundaries, assertiveness, and self-protection skills. Additionally, I assist clients in rebuilding self-worth, processing feelings of shame or guilt, and developing supportive networks. Throughout therapy, I provide guidance, empowerment, and tools to help clients heal, regain control, and make safe, informed decisions for their well-being.

Danielle Thurman (Roots and Wings Family Therapy)
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Emotional abuse leaves invisible wounds that can be just as devastating as physical trauma. If you've experienced manipulation, gaslighting, constant criticism, or controlling behavior, you may struggle with self-doubt, anxiety, or feeling disconnected from your own reality. You deserve validation that what you experienced was real and that its impact on your life matters.
In our therapeutic work together, I provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your experiences at your own pace. We'll work to rebuild your sense of self-worth, establish healthy boundaries, and develop tools to recognize unhealthy relationship patterns. Through evidence-based approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy and trauma-informed care, we'll address the complex effects of emotional abuse—from intrusive thoughts and hypervigilance to difficulties trusting yourself and others.
Recovery is possible. Many survivors of emotional abuse rediscover their authentic selves, build fulfilling relationships, and reclaim their power. Whether you're still in a difficult situation, recently left, or dealing with long-term effects from past abuse, I'm here to support you in breaking free from the cycle and creating the life you deserve. Your experiences are valid, your healing matters, and you don't have to navigate this journey alone.

Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
Under the guise of trauma focused therapy, the more subtle and therefore sometimes most confusing aspects of emotional abuse can become critical to unwind and understand both in the context of past childhood experiences with immature caregivers, how these experiences can inform the choice of romantic partners later in life and how to move past these patterns and expectations to allow for growth and freedom from relationships that detract rather than add.

Provo is home to Brigham Young University (BYU), the flagship university of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and the city's mental health landscape is shaped in profound ways by LDS religious culture—perfectionism, gender role expectations, honor code pressure, LGBTQ+ identity in a context where same-sex relationships are prohibited by church policy, and the mental health challenges common in communities with high standards of behavior and limited space for vulnerability. BYU's counseling center provides mental health services for enrolled students within the constraints of university honor code policies, and a number of private practitioners in the area specialize in faith-sensitive therapy or working with clients navigating transitions in their relationship with LDS beliefs. Common therapy concerns include faith and doubt, religious deconstruction and identity, LGBTQ+ identity in an LDS context, perfectionism and anxiety, and the challenges of mental health in a community where disclosure of struggle can feel threatening to one's social and spiritual standing. Utah County's mental health needs are significant across the board, and Provo is an important service hub for the surrounding region.
