When You’re With a Gaslighter
Do you have reason to doubt what you hear from your spouse? Have they ever given you any reason to question your perception of your relationship?

She is the author of Gaslighting: A Step-by-Step Recovery Guide and she joins us today to guide those facing a potentially gaslighting spouse toward awareness and healing.
