What You Will Learn
How do you know if you’re in an abusive relationship? Will the narcissist in your life ever change? How do you leave an abusive partner?
Join Lisa Sonni and a panel of experts as we explore these questions and more. You’ll hear from psychologists, coaches, therapists, survivors, and self-aware narcissists as we discuss the cycle of narcissistic abuse and how best to leave an abusive relationship.
We’ll cover:
- the difference between toxic relationships and abusive ones
- how narcissistic abuse differs from other types of abuse
- common tactics narcissists use to maintain power and control over their victims
- how to tell whether a narcissist is capable (and willing) to change
- practical steps for leaving your abuser for good
The first step to recovering from narcissistic abuse is understanding why it happens. Too often, we get caught in a cycle of manipulation, guilt, and fear. This webinar is all about giving you expert advice about this cycle and how you can break it.
