About this course

Intimate betrayal is a pain unlike any other; it strikes the core of our capacity to trust and love. When a person whom you love, rely on and trust betrays you, it paralyzes your physical, emotional and psychological wellbeing. Your trauma responses are activated, flooding your body with stress hormones and chemicals. If you’re not treated, or if threatening events continue to occur, your body remains stuck in the trauma response. This actually rewires your nervous system.

Still, recovery is possible, and begins with making a plan. You’ll need to cope with the immediate situation and perhaps find the right therapist. Then your goal is to clear your head and live intentionally. It helps to monitor your progress using tools such as daily tracking or journaling.

In this course, Beyond Betrayal, Colleen R. Baker, a nurse educator, walks you through the stages of betrayal, the common symptoms associated with the trauma of betrayal and strategies for finding healing and recovery.

Highlights

  • The 5 stages of betrayal, from The Set Up to Rebirth
  • How betrayal trauma rewires your nervous system
  • The natural trauma responses that are designed to protect us
  • Strategies for returning to equilibrium
  • How to find clarity in the insanity
