Ep. 104: He Sounded Overly Honest & Vulnerable

In this episode, I sit down with author and licensed therapist Chelsey Brooke Cole to discuss her experiences navigating abusive relationships, even while working as a therapist herself. We explore how her abuser used the appearance of openness and honesty, along with claims of sex addiction, to explain away his behavior. This made it even harder to recognize what was really happening: coercive control.
