Understanding Narcissistic Abuse and Complex Trauma

Episode 222 

It's hard to know the signs of narcissistic abuse and complex trauma.  This is why I invited my guest, Dr. Ingrid Clayton, to come on the podcast and share her personal and professional knowledge of dealing with a narcissist and recovering from complex trauma. 

Dr. Ingrid is a clinical psychologist and the author of the books; Believing Me: Healing from Narcissistic Abuse and Complex Trauma and Recovering Spirituality: Achieving Emotional Sobriety in Your Spiritual Practice. In this episode, she shares how her book, Believing Me, helped her heal from complex trauma.

Dr. Ingrid also talks about the difference between trauma & complex trauma, the symptoms of complex trauma, and shares her experience growing up in an alcoholic home. Moreover, she explains what gaslighting is and how it shows up and shares tips on healing from trauma.
