Detecting & Confronting Gaslighting

Recommended Six Individual Sessions with Coach Sarah

Gaslighting can be a difficult thing to truly recognize – it’s complex and nuanced, with stages, different types of gaslighters, methods of gaslighting, traps to be aware of, and more.

Though often done subconsciously, gaslighting aims to control the other person, cover up addictive behaviors, 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 Sarah will be a SAFE place for you to learn:

An understanding of what gaslighting is; the difference between a lie, “regular” manipulation, and gaslighting.
An ability to recognize the different types of gaslighters, the tactics they use, the dimensions it reaches, the stages of gaslighting, and it’s effects.
An awareness of the traps and risks/vulnerabilities you may have toward being lied to / manipulated.
The ability to recognize when gaslighting in happening around you.
Knowledge of 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.

“I was desperate for help and searched the internet for answers. I came across Coach Sarah’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 Coach Sarah’s sessions on gaslighting. 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.”
