Charly & The Abusive Recovery Coach
About this episode
Charly shares her experience of being in a romantic relationship with a recovery coach after seeking help post-abuse.
In this episode of Narcissist Apocalypse, Charly shares her story of seeking help after abuse and ending up in a relationship with the recovery practitioner she trusted. After two painful relationships, Charly found someone online who seemed to understand what she had been through. This person spoke the language of abuse recovery, worked with Charly professionally, and felt like someone who finally got it. But the professional relationship slowly crossed into something personal, then romantic. What followed was a relationship filled with broken promises, shifting stories, gaslighting, boundary violations, and the painful realization that the person who knew Charly's wounds could also use them against her.
