Abuse is characterized by someone’s actions or behavior causing you psychological trauma, resulting in, depression, anxiety, or Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Such abuse is often associated with situations of power imbalance, such as, abusive relationships, bullying, and abuse in the workplace.
Whether it’s physical, psychological or other, abuse can take a heavy toll on one’s self-esteem, self-identity, and confidence. My approach in working with abuse can include: helping you manage the trauma, working with you to claim your own independent self-identity, and developing your strength, sense of efficacy and resiliency.
