What is a Narcissistic Abuse Specialist?
As a specialised Narcissistic Abuse Coach, I offer compassionate guidance tailored for individuals recovering from narcissistic abuse. My approach focuses on creating a safe, trusting environment where clients can understand their experiences, validate their feelings, and regain their sense of empowerment.
Together, we work on rebuilding self-esteem, setting healthy boundaries, and developing practical coping strategies to navigate emotional triggers and manipulation tactics. I also emphasise self-care and self-compassion as essential tools for healing and growth.
If needed, I can recommend additional mental health support and tools to ensure a comprehensive recovery journey. My goal is to help you reclaim your life, embrace your worth, and move forward with confidence.
