Detecting & Confronting Gaslighting
Coach Jean
Recommended 6 Individual Sessions
Gaslighting is a form of abuse that is difficult to recognize – it’s complex and nuanced, with stages, with different methods and traps.
Though often done subconsciously, gaslighting aims to control the other person, cover up abusive, or as a shame response. Regardless of the reason, the gaslighter manipulates and lies to you which ultimately makes you feel crazy.
Working with Coach Jean will be a SAFE place for you to learn:
- An understanding of what gaslighting is; the difference between a lie, “regular” manipulation, and this type of abuse.
- An ability to recognize the different types of gaslighters, the tactics they use, the dimensions it reaches, the stages of gaslighting, and its effects.
- An awareness of the traps and risks/vulnerabilities you may have toward being lied to / manipulated.
- The ability to recognize when gaslighting is happening.
- Tools you can use to “opt-out” when you recognize gaslighting.
- An ability to engage the tools to empower you to opt out of gaslighting episodes.
In each session, you’ll experience a safe place to voice your questions and receive feedback, validation, and encouragement – plus have notes/homework to deepen your understanding or possibly reveal more questions during the week. Schedule a session today.
“I was desperate for help and searched the internet for answers. I came across BTR’s info on gaslighting. So this is what I’d been experiencing in my marriage for 26 years, and there’s a name for it?! It was literally a mind blowing revelation for me. That led me to the BTR website where I went on a podcast binge and listened to everything I could get my hands on. The “fog” of gaslighting began to lift and with the help of one of the coaches, I gained the courage to set some significant and appropriate boundaries. I registered for individual sessions. Honestly, I thought I had a pretty good handle on the subject and didn’t expect to learn much more. Was I ever wrong. What I thought I knew about gaslighting was only a drop in the bucket. Her sessions were very informative and practical with examples, role playing, and opportunities to apply what we were learning to our real life situations in a safe situation with feedback and encouragement. If you have been betrayed, chances are gaslighting is or has been a significant part of your story as well. I would encourage you to do the gaslighting sessions and begin to leave the “fog” behind. Knowledge is power.”
