Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
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.

Brittany Rine
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHCA
The woulds left on the hearts and minds of those who have endured emotional abuse are real. Overcoming these wounds is a process. It can help to have someone walk alongside of us during this process and have our hurts validated and seen, but also to help assure us of our reality. My approach when addressing emotional abuse is to validate the hurt, process the hurt, help clients decipher what is real and what is not, to instill self-compassion to give ourselves space to heal, and to psycho-educate on emotional abuse to not only empower clients, but to also help them avoid further emotional abuse.
