Domestic Relationships

This a purposefully short book that contains powerful messages. It is like having a good and genuine friend by your side. Written by a therapist with many, many years of practical experience in the resolution of problems such as these, what this book does is to turn sufferers into survivors and then those survivors into happy and fulfilled regular people. It shows how that wonderful, but fake, love affair is all about the narcissist and not you. They can only love themselves. That is narcissism, and it is a personality disorder.

You’ll see the reality of your situation and discover what you have not been able to see that has kept you stuck. And you will become empowered to run with that vision.

L'emprise est aujourd'hui invoquée dès que l'environnement conjugal ou intrafamilial est le cadre de violences psychologiques. Sollicitée souvent avec excès, cette notion suggère une intention de nuire en recourant à la violence et à la maltraitance au mépris de la dignité humaine. Pour mieux comprendre la relation d'emprise, Anne-Laure Buffet propose, au carrefour de la psychanalyse, de la psychologie, de la sociologie et de la philosophie, d'en définir les acteurs principaux, d'observer comment se construit ce système, les raisons pour qu'il s'instaure et les différents contextes dans lesquels il peut se développer plus particulièrement.

And she intimately knows what women in this situation need in order to gain freedom from the lies of abuse - to be reborn as the people God longs for them to be.
