Understanding Gaslighting and Taking Back Control

This week we are deep diving into this term that is popping up everywhere, Gaslighting. Gaslighting is a form of psychological manipulation that attempts to make individuals question their own reality in order to gain power and control over them. And, the scary thing is- it can happen to anyone. There is good news though and Kat is going solo this week to make sure we all know that there is a way to get out of these kinds of tangled webs. Listen this week to gain a better understanding of what Gaslighting actually is, how to spot it, and what to do when you feel like you are being gas lit.    Links for episodes and articles that were talked about: 11 Red Flags of Gaslighting in a Relationship Stephanie Sarkis, Ph.D. Book Narcissism Episode Love Addiction Episode    Follow Kat on Instagram: @KatVanburen Follow the podcast Instagram: @YouNeedTherapyPodcast Click HERE to see the You Need Therapy merch!
