Therapists Can Refer Survivors To
Therapists often need other programming they currently do not provide to their clients. Often in Narcissistic Abuse, there are additional needs survivors have that are outside of either our time limits or expertise which include psychoeducational workshops for survivors, legal support or court prep, work with children/teens, or more adjunct work in trauma stabilization.
Below are programs or services that are ‘narcissistic abuse-trauma-informed’ that could be adjunctive help to your clients.

It’s a safe, validating space where survivors can connect with others who truly understand. Together, we’ll explore topics like understanding narcissism and other harmful personality disorders, recognizing trauma symptoms, breaking trauma bonds, and building emotional resilience.

The group meets virtually once a week for six weeks, with new cohorts offered throughout the year.
Toxic Free Relationship Community: Co-hosted by Chelli and two other experts in narcissistic abuse recovery, this group is an ongoing, virtual support space for survivors of narcissistic abuse, toxic relationships, and coercive control. It offers a safe, compassionate environment where you can connect with others who truly understand. Inside, you’ll find live group coaching calls, expert-led workshops, and discussion groups covering topics like healing trauma, breaking trauma bonds, rebuilding self-trust, and creating healthy, empowered relationships.

This is a year-round community, so you can join anytime and receive ongoing support at your own pace.
