Emotional abuse is an often hidden or hard to pinpoint type of abuse that may occur in our adult relationships, those with our parents growing up, or both. One definition of emotional abuse includes psychological (i.e. non-physical) behaviors such as threats, insults, constant monitoring or “checking in,” controlling, shaming, humiliation, intimidation, isolation or ignoring behaviors.
You may also be dealing with childhood emotional abuse which can be defined as, 'sustained, repetitive, inappropriate emotional response to the child’s experience of emotion and its accompanying expressive behavior’.
Healing involves speaking our truth, learning about connecting to our emotions, boundary setting, connecting to our bodies and beginning to create new ways of building loving safe relationships with ourselves and others. Depending upon your own history we may make use of variety of tools to heal, including somatic work, trauma work, journaling, boundary setting, inner child work, family systems work, art therapy, or many other paths that can lead to reclaiming your truth.

Sierra Dayton
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.Ed., LPC
Emotional abuse is often very pervasive in an individual's life and many people often overlook the impact it can have on someone. Emotional abuse is highly co-occcurring with symptoms of eating disorders, BPD, and other concerns. Emotional abuse is often what leads to maladaptive schemas, therefore I also utilize schema-focused therapy to help individuals who have experienced emotional abuse to dismantle their maladaptive schemas.
