Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Legacy Mental Health Consulting Services provides compassionate, trauma‑informed support for individuals healing from emotional abuse, including patterns of manipulation, gaslighting, control, criticism, and chronic invalidation. We understand how deeply these experiences can impact self‑worth, identity, and the ability to trust oneself and others. In therapy, we offer a safe, steady space to process what happened, rebuild confidence, and learn to recognize healthy versus harmful relational dynamics. Using approaches such as CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and empowerment‑focused therapy, we help clients strengthen boundaries, challenge internalized messages, and reconnect with their authentic voice. Whether emotional abuse occurred in a romantic relationship, family system, or other environment, we provide supportive guidance to help clients reclaim their sense of self, restore emotional stability, and move forward with resilience and clarity.

MJB Wellness LLC
Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Coach, Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Sex Educator, Certified Reiki
Unfortunately, more people that we would like to admit have suffered emotional abuse and it has affected their lives negatively. It is at the root of many issues that people come to me for, even if they don't realize it. When we do our initial detailed intake interview, these things quickly come to light. Hypnosis is a powerful tool for resolving or neutralizing past hurts and trauma. many of my clients have continued to suffer, even as traditional therapy has failed to give them relief. Usually, one or two sessions of hypnosis are enough to resolve their trauma and free them. As they emerge from trance, the change is visible as they seem lighter, happier, more relaxed, their faces smoother as the tension leaves their bodies.

Courtney Crooks
Psychologist, PhD, CTMH, CCTP, NATC
Emotional abuse or antagonistic relationship dynamics can negatively impact your physical and psychological well-being. Through brief or long term psychodynamic/psychoanalytic approaches using empirically-supported methods, I work with each patient to identify core themes and repetitions linked to their relationship patterns, including experiences of narcissistic or emotional abuse from an intimate partner or other person. Over time, this insight and reflection encourages the patient to become aware of relationship patterns, identify potential abusive relationship behaviors, enact desired changes to their relationship patterns, and ultimately gain more personal agency to live according to their values.
