What's most important to me is ensuring you feel safe and comfortable enough to express your concerns. It takes courage to reach out for help and I commend you for taking this step. I work to support clients with concerns related to trauma, abuse, narcissistic abuse, codependency, and boundaries. Together, we can work through and better understand your concerns, factors underlying those experiences, and perhaps identify mechanisms that have once but no longer serve you in your life. Above all, therapy and the therapeutic relationship can be a powerful tool for transformative healing.

Providing psychoeducation on what Emotional Abuse is, is the first step. Emotional abuse can include:
constant yelling; name calling, demeaning remarks or threats; physically or socially isolating an individual; withholding affection; bullying or public humiliation; exposure to family violence; denying something an individual knows is true (gaslighting); destroying an individual’s belongings, hurting their pets, or threatening to do so amongst other things.
One of the hardest things a person has to do is stop being in denial when someone you love is mistreating you. Through DBT I will teach you assertiveness training, distress tolerance, self-acceptance and cognitive reframing so that you can reclaim your self worth.
My work with emotional abuse involves creating a safe, affirming space where you can heal, grow, and move beyond the shadows of manipulation and control, towards a brighter, self-empowered future. I offer compassionate support to help you untangle complex feelings, regain autonomy, and nurture healthier relationships.
Healing from emotional abuse is a courageous journey. I offer a warm and empathetic space where you can feel safe to explore your experiences and work towards recovery.

Emotional abuse can be confusing as it can often be small bits here and there. This makes it hard to navigate relationship dynamics. It's manipulative in nature, in that using emotional abuse can isolate, control and make one fearful.
Emotional abuse is far too common and has devastating effects. One must work on gaining self-esteem looking at the past to see what occurred to cause them to be in this situation now to heal past wounds and to gain the tools to deal with their current situation.
The invisible scars can be more painful than the visible ones. Do you find that you cannot maintain relationships? Do you believe that others are against you? you may be suffering from emotional abuse . Call me for a fifteen min. Consultation.
