  • Separating someone from their family and friends.
  • Withholding affection or love.
  • Downplaying another person’s experiences, perspectives, emotions, or thoughts.
  • Using or objectifying people.
  • Denying access to money, medical care, food, transportation, or other crucial resources.
  • Using guilt, threats, or intimidation.

How does emotional abuse counseling work?

Emotional abuse counseling with our Thriveworks therapists in Littleton gives people the safe space they need to identify and understand the harm they’ve experienced and move forward. Through therapy, many victims have rebuilt their self-esteem and self-worth; recognized that they did not cause the abuse, but their perpetrator is responsible for the choice to harm; identified their wounds and found the treatment they need; healed from trauma; re-established their personal safety; grieved their losses; formed new, loving relationships; and learned to trust their experiences and emotions.

Is emotional abuse counseling conducted in person or online?

Emotional abuse counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long does emotional abuse counseling last?

Emotional abuse counseling with one of our Thriveworks therapists in Littleton, CO can last for a few weeks, months, or longer, depending on the individual’s exact needs and preferences.

Emotional abuse, also known as psychological abuse, involves abusive verbal behavior that targets an individual, creating a destructive sense of fear, obligation, or guilt. Often occurring over a long period, this abuse can become normalized for the victim, making it difficult for them to recognize it as abuse. At Thriveworks in Littleton, CO, our licensed counselors are here to help you understand and recover from emotional abuse.

Understanding Emotional Abuse

Emotional abuse can manifest in various ways, including:

  • Alienation
  • Blaming
  • Bullying
  • Emotional blackmail
  • Gaslighting
  • False accusations
  • Harassment
  • Intimidation
  • Name-calling
  • Raging
  • Threats

The Impact of Emotional Abuse

While emotional abuse differs from physical abuse, it can be more damaging in the long term. Physical injuries heal over time, but emotional scars can embed deeply into the victim’s psyche, tormenting them for years. Victims often find themselves “walking on eggshells,” constantly in a state of hypervigilance and anxiety, afraid to speak or act.

Daily struggles for victims may include:

  • Constantly being on their “best” behavior around the abuser
  • Being unable to relax or enjoy anything in the abuser’s presence
  • Always anticipating the worst
  • Waiting for the next outburst
  • Blaming themselves for the abuser’s moods
  • Losing hope of a peaceful, contented life
