I help nclients heal from the deep, invisible wounds of emotional abuse. Whether you have experienced gaslighting, manipulation, control, or constant criticism-in a romantic relationship, family system, or workplace-emotional abuse can leave you feeling confused, depleted, and disconnected from your own voice. In our work together, I providea validating, non-judgemental space where you can untangle the trauma, rebuild your sense of self, and learn to set healthy boundaries without guilt. Healing is possible and you don't have to do it alone.

Kristee Barker
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-S
I am a trauma specialist. Emotional abuse is a form of complex trauma. It leaves deep marks on the nervous system, identity, and sense of safety. Using EMDR, IFS, and other trauma‑focused approaches, we gently untangle the fear, shame, confusion, and self‑blame that often linger long after the abuse ends. My goal is to help you feel grounded, empowered, and supported as you reclaim your voice, your boundaries, and your life. I teach you interpersonal effectiveness skills that can help you identify and avoid emotional abuse in the future.

Philadelphia Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PsyD
Developing a close relationship with someone who displays narcissistic tendencies can result in trauma and pain. If you believe you have experienced narcissistic abuse from a parent, a partner, a friend, or another close entity, you may have noticed daily or near-daily dread, brain fog, panic, helplessness, and powerlessness. You may feel shame, self-doubt, and confusion alongside a tendency to blame yourself for all the ways this relationship feels wrong. You may feel that you’ve lost touch with your former confidence and vitality, as though both you and your world have shrunk under the shadow of this relationship. You may continue to feel deep longing and love for a person you know has harmed you.
At PCT, we are here to validate and witness your journey to healing. We will work with you to address the acute emotional and somatic symptoms of narcissistic abuse no matter where you are in your healing process. We will cultivate compassion for all the parts of you that have emerged throughout this struggle. We’ll walk with you as you gather the pieces of yourself and put them back together. We will help you build a strong foundation that can’t be rocked, and a home in yourself where you can know peace and acceptance.
