How to Divorce a Sociopath, Narcissist or Other Exploiter 6-part Bundle
If you need to divorce a sociopath, narcissist or some other exploiter, you must be realistic in your expectations and resolute in managing your case. Here’s what that means:
Realistic: You may not see real justice when you divorce a sociopath. You may not be able to hold your soon-to-be ex accountable for all of his or her deceit, manipulation and betrayal. Your goal when you divorce a sociopath is to get the person out of your life as quickly and permanently as possible.
Resolute: This is a battle, and you are the general of your case. Even if you have a really good attorney, when you divorce a sociopath you need to stay engaged from start to finish.
Lovefraud is here to support you. The five courses in this bundle will help you understand how sociopaths view court (as a war they want to win). The courses offer tips and strategies to help you divorce a sociopath, and tools so you can handle the stress.
All of the webinars are available immediately on any device. Watch them as many times as you want. The webinars will help you make a plan, and adjust your plan as your situation changes.
You can do this, and Lovefraud’s courses will help you. Here’s the lineup:
