Are you being bullied in your relationship?
Maybe it's your husband, wife, partner, boyfriend, or girlfriend.
Maybe you feel you're being belittled or berated, manipulated, or controlled.
Maybe you try to shrug it off, telling yourself it's not so bad.
The truth is: You are a victim of emotional abuse--but you don't have to take it anymore.
You have the power to make it stop.
In this inspiring and life-changing book, acclaimed psychologist and relationship expert Anne-Renée Testa, Ph.D., shows you how to find your inner strength, learn to stand up for yourself, and finally get the love and respect you deserve.
“So many people have their lives torn apart over emotional abuse. Dr. Testa's book is a must-read for anyone who finds themselves in a destructive relationship.”
