Emotional Abuse Therapy
Dr. Chiara Simeone-DiFrancesco
Psychologist, PhD
Relationships need to be safe and respectful. You are an equal human being, no matter what else is about you. There are many things you can try to change dynamics, so that you don't stay abused. A good therapist should try to understand both sides, as this is part of understanding that is empathic but firm in setting boundaries. I often treat emotional abuse in the context of couples' therapy, and we work to heal and resolve it. I have seen many emotionally abusive partners change. So, don't give up and don't give in. Your never know what solid therapy might accomplish!

Emotional Abuse Therapy
Dr. Christine Manley
Psychologist, PhD in Clinical Psychology
Emotional abuse may be more common than many individuals think. It can occur in childhood, at home, at work or in a number of other relationships. Studies have shown that the differences between physical abuse and emotional abuse were not significantly different in terms of harmful long-term mental health outcomes (things like later substance abuse, depression and anxiety). Emotional abuse may not leave bruises, but it can still leave a "mark." If you feel you may be continuing to fell the effects of emotional abuse, please contact me to begin your recovery process.

Camille Larsen
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LAC
For many people who have lived with emotional abuse, a therapeutic relationship is the first safe relationship they have. It is understandable to build trust over time at a pace your nervous system dictates, and I feel honored to do this work and walk beside you on this journey.
Emotional abuse sometimes produces symptoms of PTSD. EMDR and other therapies can significantly reduce these symptoms.
