For Professionals

Are you a mental health professional who provides services to individuals struggling with the aftermath of a toxic or narcissistic relationship?

Are you a client who believe your therapist or psychologist would benefit from additional information regarding relational abuse?

I will be participating in an upcoming summit focused on the psychological and neurological impact of intimate partner abuse.

My talk is entitled “Trauma Bonds to a Violating Partner: How Neurobiology Can Work Against Victims of Narcissistic Abuse“

Within my session you will learn:

• why it is often more difficult (for many) to detach from an intimate connection with a narcissist than non-narcissist.
• the brain’s response to the loss of the abusive relationship.
• the neurobiology of the trauma bond. 
• and insights from research to address over-active brain systems.
