Description

Gaslighting tactics leave victims questioning their reality and trapped in a web of manipulation and control. Its insidious nature makes it tough to spot. But recovery hinges on recognition. If you miss the signs, you could do all the wrong things for these clients, even mirroring the gaslighting they’ve already experienced.

View Stephanie Sarkis, PhD, therapist and best-selling author of Gaslighting: Recognize Manipulative and Emotionally Abusive People - and Break Free for this must-see session so you can identify the signs and provide the safe, trusting and supportive environment clients need.
