If you are over age 18 and your biological parents consent you could have your biological parents adopt you and that should amend your birth certificate.  Check on this with vital statistics but it might work.  Just be aware that this could effect any benefits or future inheritance rights you have with your adoptive family. 
 
You can also, on your own, once you are 18 or older, apply for a name change that will amend your birth certificate but not remove the names listed of your adoptive parents. 
 
Changing your birth records is only ceremonial.  It may take counseling to resolve the emotional damage.  But I do understand how this will help you move away from the abuse you suffered.   At a minimum you can certainly change your name without needing anyone else's consent or participation.  We don't normally produce our birth certificates but we do use our legal names every day.  You can even adopt a completely new name that has nothing to do with any of your parents.   
 
But again, I urge you to get counseling before you make any drastic changes in your life.  I don't want you to have depression because you expect a ceremonial change to help with your emotional pain and later find out that it really doesn't.
