Healing from narcissistic abuse; whether that be inter-partner, familial, friendships, work colleagues or anyone who has a position of trust in your life, is complex and takes time.

Self Compassion is the absolute bedrock to my work with those victim-survivors who are in recovery as we need to be able to be an ally to our own selves, in a society that perpetuates self abandonment when we are struggling with recovery.

I often say to my clients “cut yourself some slack” no one prepares you for the impact and effects that psychological, emotional and physical abuse will have on you, especially when you experience all of them over a prolonged period of time.

You have been traumatised relationally and your central nervous system is shot to pieces.

You are in recovery ❤️‍🩹

And healing is possible and needs to be done with a therapist who specialises in Narcissistic Abuse Recovery

Being compassionate with ourselves as part of our healing, means looking at reframing the expectations we place upon ourselves which demotivate us.

Cut yourself some slack, you’re doing the best you can, with the resources available to you at this time.
