Understanding the manipulation and emotionally destructive, abusive behavior was such an eye-opener. The truth that the lies my husband was telling me were not nearly as destructive as the lies I was telling myself was life-changing. I realized that I continued to accept his lies because I wanted to believe them. I finally began to face the reality of the situation.

I was a wife, mother, and entrepreneur, but above all, I was lonely, scared, angry and desperate. I was hiding behind layers of masks. After reading Leslie Vernick's book ‘Emotionally Destructive Relationship,' I searched her site and discovered [her credentials].

I look back and know that it was divine intervention. God knew that I needed someone like Leslie [and her team] who would walk me through the chaotic mess to a place of understanding my true identity so that I could experience peace and freedom.

Leslie has a gift of asking the right questions and pinpointing ‘twisted thinking.' Much of my thought process stemmed from childhood and was made worse with an emotionally abusive man. She coached me and coaxed me to find out what was keeping me stuck.By the time we finished our first ‘phone session,' I had a new key to life and who I was!
