Emotional Abuse
Lindsey Luedtke
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Emotional abuse often comes in the form of what others have said to you and have resulted in deep negative self beliefs. Through IFS, we will find those parts of you that still hold those beliefs and offer to unburden them, providing you with relief from symptoms of depression and anxiety.

Emotional Abuse
Martha Sayre
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.Ed, LPC
Emotional abuse is often hidden and extremely painful. It can make you feel like you are crazy. It is important to understand the dynamics as a first step to freeing yourself from an emotionally abusive situation.

Emotional Abuse
Peter Gould
Psychologist, Ph.D.
As a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in emotional abuse, I provide compassionate and effective treatment to address emotional trauma. My approach, informed by evidence-based therapies, is tailored to meet each individual's unique needs. Trauma can stem from any stressful event that threatens your safety, triggering emotional, psychological, or physical responses that deeply affect your mental health. Unfortunately, many people don't take the time to properly process their trauma, which can lead to long-term mental health issues. My goal is to help you navigate and heal from these experiences for lasting well-being.

Emotional Abuse
Carrie Gauthier
Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCHt
Emotional abuse is often a pattern that is repeated throughout life until the root cause memory is recovered and the inner child is able to release long-suppressed emotions and express them to the antagonist. This is done in the childhood regression in a safe and loving way. Once the inner child gets to express the unmet needs, the weight is lifted, the emotions are processed, and they no longer play on a loop. You are now free to move on and choose peaceful, liberating alternatives. Together we customize the hypnotic programming for this as well as any motivational work required. I empower you with a tool you can use every morning to go from dread to inspiration in only a few minutes and face the day with joy instead of fear. Ultimately, we signal to your nervous system that you are safe again; safe in your own mind and comfortable in your own skin. We reinforce emotional regulation and give you tools you can apply in minutes to regain emotinal equilibrium and return your body to homeostasis, should you feel triggered or overwhelmed.

Emotional Abuse
Nancy Burns
Counselor/Therapist, JD, LMHC, LPC, MA, EMDR Certified
When we are trapped inside toxic relationship cycles, we often come to a point where we feel like there is no way out—especially if we keep on recreating the same toxic patterns with the people around us. The first step to breaking free is to understand that you have the power to get out and save yourself from destructive patterns so you can live your life in the healthiest, most authentic way possible. It is never too late to ask for help, and my therapy approach involves giving you the guidance and support you need to identify these toxic relationships in your life so you can start building healthy, mindful connections. We will work together to discover how you can break the cycle, rework, and nurture your relationships by identifying the root cause of these unhealthy patterns. This could involve pinpointing traumatic childhood experiences like neglectful or abusive behaviors from emotionally immature or narcissistic parents and other authority figures in your life. Once you’ve recognized where these dysfunctional patterns come from, we will work toward getting rid of harmful belief systems like constant self-blaming or feeling as if you are a bad person, so you can begin to prioritize your well-being. We can then work on rebuilding your self-esteem, setting your emotional and mental boundaries, and learning how to better regulate your emotions. Breaking away from these patterns will eventually give you the peace of mind you need to finally start loving yourself so that you feel worthy of good treatment. That is the first step in creating and nurturing positive relationships while living a life that’s free from emotional pain and trauma-induced vicious cycles. - - - "There is no normal life that is free of pain. The very wrestling with our problems provides the impetus for growth." Fred Rogers

Through trauma-informed care, mindfulness, and self-empowerment strategies, I help clients break free from toxic dynamics and rebuild a life rooted in self-trust, confidence, and emotional safety.
