Affects of Narcissistic Abuse

Narcissistic abuse is plain and simple, trauma!

​

It happens slowly over time and victims often don't even realize what is happening to them. The abuser intentionally belittles, isolates, and demoralizes their victim, leaving behind a trail of confusion, anxiety and angst and the victim can start to question their own sanity.

​

As a Narcissistic Trauma Specialist™, let me explain the affects of narcissistic abuse...
