Be the first to review

About this course

Your partner has always been controlling — it’s one of the reasons why you want to leave. But now that you’re getting ready to really make the break, he or she is not letting you go — instead, your partner is ramping up the control.

In this course, Sonia Brill, LCSW, offers you a step-by-step guide on how to safely navigate a high-conflict divorce from someone who has narcissistic or borderline personality disorder. You’ll learn how to assess your situation, determine your level of risk, and develop a plan for action. You’ll learn a method for dealing with your ex’s intrusive and erratic communications. And if you have kids, you’ll learn how to use parallel parenting to minimize contact with your ex.

In the end, this course will help you get beyond the emotional drama to create a life outside of your high-conflict divorce.

Highlights

• Why your ex ramps up controlling behavior when you want to leave
• Traits of narcissistic personality disorder and borderline personality disorder
• Identifying the methods your ex uses to try to maintain control over you
• How to accept your feelings on a day-to-day basis
• Finding the right support, such as a therapist and an attorney
