A Safe Refuge for When You Need It Most

If this course stirred something inside you — memories, realizations, or an awareness of how deeply manipulation and gaslighting have impacted your life — you’re not alone, and you don’t have to navigate this ocean alone either.

Whether you’re just beginning to recognize these patterns, are healing from a recent experience, or are supporting others through this, it’s okay to seek help. There is no shame in surfacing for air.
