  • All Court Staff & Survivors of DV

    Anybody who works for family courts or cases involving children and abused women need to listen to these episodes. Unless court members are highly well trained in domestic violence they have NO business being a part of family court that involves domestic violence cases.

  • Incredible Resource!!!

    A therapist who really gets it! This podcast has been deeply meaningful to me over the last several years and every single episode is value packed and well informed. I wish this had been around years ago during times I couldn’t afford therapy and desperately needed help coparenting with my abuser and protecting my child from the harm of coercive control. Thank you so much, Sybil!!!!

  • Very insightful podcast

    I live in France and a lot of the information on this podcast helps me. I started my healing journey with Lundy Bancroft’s why does he do that?, and Sybil touches on topics which are not all about the extremes of narcissism. Because abuse does not come only from narcissistic abuse but also from extreme entitlement and control. Thank you Sybil

  • Save yourself tons on lawyers fees with this amazing content.

    Instead of spending tons of money asking your lawyer questions that are better answered by a therapist, listen to Sybil’s amazing content. She clearly knows her stuff and is doing a fabulous service for her community. What she is offering here is pure gold.

  • Packed full of valuable information

    As a survivor, this podcast has helped me navigate the ins and outs of divorcing an abuser and the post separation abuse I continue to endure. I appreciate the tailored topics and experts in the podcast episodes. I take away nuggets of information each time I listen to one.
