Emotional Abuse
Kelly McAleer
Psychologist, Psy.D.
The effects of emotional abuse can continue long after the relationship or circumstances have changed. I work with adults who grew up with critical, controlling, emotionally unpredictable, or emotionally abusive parents and family members, as well as those experiencing emotional abuse in current relationships. Therapy can help you understand the lasting impact of these experiences on self-worth, trust, boundaries, and relationships, and begin changing patterns that no longer serve you.

Emotional Abuse
Ashley Mason
Counselor/Therapist, CMHC, LMHC
Emotional abuse — especially from a narcissistic partner or parent — can leave you questioning your worth, your memories, and even your sanity. Many of my clients grew up with criticism, manipulation, or constant blame, and later found themselves repeating those painful patterns in adult relationships. In therapy, I help you untangle the confusion, recognize the ways you’ve been controlled, and separate your true self from the voice of the abuser. Over time, you can rebuild confidence, set boundaries without guilt, and begin to trust your own feelings again.

Emotional Abuse
Compassionate Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Emotional abuse is insidious. It has the potential to go unchecked for a very long time. And when you do finally recognize that it's happening to you, there are waves of emotions and decisions that need to be addressed. Creating a support system to help you find emotional and relational safety, compassion, and understanding are vital. Learning how to recognize abuse takes time and expertise. We can help.

Emotional Abuse
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.

Emotional Abuse
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.
