Healing Narcissistic Abuse with Inner Child Work

A Teaspoon of Healing

Learn why healing your inner child wounds is essential to removing harmful patterns in your life and in your relationships! My guest is Paula Smith, an intuitive healer who specializes in inner child healing.

Paula shares her powerful story of how she left a narcissistic, abusive relationship of 15 years. We talk about what narcissistic abuse is, what a trauma bond is, and how to gather the strength to leave a relationship like this. We also discuss how helpful mindfulness and meditation can be during this process.

Paula helps people examine their triggers, identify inner child wounds, and heal these inner blockages that can prevent them from forming stable, healthy relationships. Find Paula on Instagram @mindfuladventurecoaching
