Abuse is not only physical, and in being around an emotional abuser you really need to stand in your own real ground, to see when you are being drawn into the toxicity of the power abuse - there can be a lot of selfdoubt, shame and guilt at play, so meeting with a counsellor who can help you sort out "what is what" can be of great value in learning to see through the mix, and know what you can rely on.
In my practice addressing emotional abuse, I create a secure and compassionate setting where individuals can understand and heal from the impacts of emotional abuse. Recognizing the deep scars left by such experiences, I focus on helping clients identify the signs of abuse, process their emotions, and rebuild their sense of self-worth. My approach is gentle yet empowering, aiming to equip clients with the tools they need to establish boundaries and advocate for their well-being. Together, we work on healing strategies that foster recovery and resilience, enabling clients to move beyond their experiences and lead lives defined by strength and self-respect. This journey is about reclaiming your voice and your life in a supportive and nurturing environment.

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.
