Summary:
Emotional abuse is a pattern of nonphysical bullying behavior used against a victim to hurt, undermine, and control them-and it can often be difficult to recognize what it looks like and how it feels. The Emotional Abuse Recovery Workbook provides therapy-based strategies that will help you identify, acknowledge, and understand emotional abuse, and begin the process of recovery. Learn how to recognize the warning signs, remain vigilant in threatening situations, and understand that you are not to blame for what happened to you. With positive and actionable exercises for relief and healing-along with space to write and reflect on what you learn-you'll become empowered to regain your freedom and sense of self.
