btr.org - btr.org has daily, online Group and Individual Sessions for victims of emotional & psychological abuse and sexual coercion. For women experiencing pain, chaos, and isolation due to their husband’s lying, gaslighting, manipulation, porn use, cheating, infidelity, emotional abuse, and narcissistic abuse. Labeling a victim as "codependent" is a form of victim blaming. Pornography addiction / sex addiction are a domestic abuse issue. Narcissistic abuse is not a communication issue. We help women who are married, separated, or divorced heal through establishing emotional safety. If you suspect your husband is a narcissist, a pornography addict, or emotionally abusive, this podcast is for you. Every woman on our team has experienced betrayal trauma first hand.

episode 163: BTR.ORG Group Sessions Are Here For You
Have you been betrayed, emotionally abused, and abandoned? Disbelieved, dismissed, and even shunned?
BTR.ORG is here for you.
Our Group Sessions Help You Identify Abusive Relationships
Identifying abuse can be difficult. Clergy, therapists, even the legal system, dismiss abuse victims if there aren't signs of physical battering.
How can women accurately identify abuse if they bear no bruises?
A safe space to share their experiences, emotions, and concerns is a necessary component in identify abuse and finding validation.
BTR.ORG Group Sessions Help You Identify The Elements of Abuse
Women are empowered when they become educated about emotional abuse. BTR.ORG coaches are trained to help you identify the elements of abuse so that you can make empowered, knowledgeable decisions for your own safety.
When victims understand and accept that they are in an abusive relationship, they can hold tightly to the truth.
BTR.ORG Group Sessions Empower Women To Live In Truth
Abusers condition victims to live in fear and lies. Embracing and living in truth helps victims find safety.
BTR.ORG Group Sessions are a safe space for women to express difficult emotions without fear of judgment.
BTR.ORG Encourages Victims to Prioritize Safety
Your safety is more important than anything. Prioritize your safety above all. Safety isn't just not being physically harmed. Safety is emotional, mental, spiritual, and sexual comfort. You deserve safety.
You can prioritize your safety by setting boundaries. Some examples:
* I only speak to and spend time with people who respect me.
* I do not engage in sexual contact unless I feel completely safe.
* I do not speak to abusive people.
* I call the police when I am stalked, harassed, or terrorized.
* I report crime, including marital rape.
BTR Is Here For You
As Anne says, "Hope and help are possible." You can heal. You can experience safety and peace again. You deserve love.
You don't have to do this alone.
The Betrayal Trauma Recovery Group meets every day in every time zone. In BTRG sessions, you can process your trauma, ask questions, share your story, and create strong bonds with other women who get it. Join today.
Remember, you're not alone.

Anne (00:00):Welcome to BTR.ORG. This is Anne.
(03:41):I honor all the women who listen to this podcast who are searching for answers, who are genuinely trying to save their families in the face of abuse and not knowing what to do and getting harmful information from therapists or internet articles or clergy resources that haven't helped them understand the abuse. I wanna thank everyone for listening. I hope that BTR is helpful. The thought of any woman being in an abusive situation and not understanding what it is, is heartbreaking to me. Also, a thank you to all of you who have shared our material on social media or shared it with friends in an effort to educate more women about abuse. So with that, here are their shares.
