Treating survivors of pathological love relationships is something I specialize in. It’s a unique dynamic and often misunderstood. I offer individual therapy and I run a support group for survivors. Certain therapeutic modalities are particularly helpful, EMDR, EFT, and hypnotherapy. I’m trained in all three. It’s impossible to “talk” away the brainwashing, cognitive dissonance, and hypnotic programming that happens during relationships with these predators. If you need help leaving or recovering from one of these relationships, call me at 321-757-4018.
