Gaslighting & Narcissism Q & A | Ep. 622
Manage episode 424192160 series 2390901
We have gotten a lot of questions about gaslighting and narcissism, and today Dr. Kim is answering. This topic is layered and one podcast episode cannot take the place of more in-depth interventions, but we can offer helpful and hopeful next steps. In today’s episode we’re covering how to know what constitutes abuse versus the sin nature we all struggle with. Listen for
We pray this episode is helpful for you and your marriage.
Episode highlights include:
Marriage counseling doesn’t work with abusers – So what does?
Can a marriage recover after long-term gaslighting?
How to diagnose abuse using the power and control wheel
Does the “gray rock” strategy work in marriage?
Reasons why emotional abuse is often dismissed
*Music for this podcast is created by Noah Copeland. Check him out here!
