You are not alone. 1 in 3 people have experienced a toxic relationship. It has been studied extensively, and there are patterns that abusers use. Knowing these patterns can educate us to understand, and then, heal, from what happened, and prevent us from experiencing it again.

This is applicable for people who have experienced any toxic relationship, whether with a partner or within their family, domestic violence, intimate partner violence, narcissistic abuse, coercive control or abuse, toxic work relationships, toxic friendships, any kind of unhealthy relationship. This can be helpful for people who have survived these relationships, and anyone who works with survivors. It affects 1 in 2 trans people, 1 in 3 cis-gender women, and 1 in 9 cis-gender men, so if you work with people, you work with survivors!

Also, anyone can benefit from this information! Knowing this will help us to help our friends, our neighbors, and all our loved ones, so we can help them recognize what is happening and safely leave the relationship.

Everyone has different learning styles and preferences. I created different ways to teach these same concepts, so you can choose the method you like best.

1. Warning Signs Books: These books are my babies! I wrote my full story of being in an abusive marriage, from the time I met him to the time I left him. There is some physical violence, and a lot of emotional abuse. After every chapter in the story, there is a chapter explaining the psychological aspects of the abuse, and of my reactions. If you read It Ends With Us and had questions, read this book to understand what was going on. These books will help you understand domestic violence in the context of reading a story.

2. Healing from Toxic Relationships Complete Course: You can purchase the whole 8-session course for a discounted price, and you can use a payment plan if you want.

a. Healing from Toxic Relationships Individually Packaged Course: You can purchase one session at a time, or just select the pieces of the course you feel would help you best. I suggest to watch all 8 videos in order, as the information builds upon itself, but of course you can do whatever feels right for you.

3. Healing from Toxic Relationships Workbook: This includes all the concepts in the course, packaged into a workbook. Available in print and digital on Amazon! And it is part of Kindle Unlimited!

4. Healing from Toxic Relationships Continuing Education course: May 2 with Cascadia! This is an interactive course to teach mental health therapists and professionals about how to help people heal from toxic relationships. The course is now open for registration!

5. Warning Signs Podcast: I narrated the first book as a podcast! You can search "Kate Mageau" and "Warning Signs" anywhere you listen to podcasts to find it. Here's links for Apple, Spotify, and Audible.
