Complex PTSD, Trauma, Narcissistic Abuse & Grief Survivors

Designed for first timers to our group meetings, this is a support group designed for people who are thinking about leaving, in the process of leaving or have successfully left a Narcissistic relationship.

*REGISTRATION AND ATTENDANCE AT THIS GROUP PROVIDES YOU ACCESS TO UNLIMITED, COMPLIMENTARY GROUP SUPPORT. UPON ATTENDANCE YOU ARE CONSIDERED AN ESTABLISHED MEMBER AND CAN SIGN UP FOR ANY OF OUR MEETINGS*

DESCRIPTION: The first half hour of the meeting will consist of us introducing ourselves, providing a brief description of our group and how it operates and then advising you of our rules and regulations. The last half hour of the meeting, each member will be provided time to introduce themselves and advise what they are looking for from the group so that we can advise you the best support meeting in our network for your individual needs and circumstances. For safety and security, CAMERAS MUST BE ON DURING THIS MEETING.

*NOTE: You are responsible for making sure your Zoom settings work prior to the meeting. Please check your settings and give it a trial run before your attendance.*

AGENDA: Grab a coffee, ice cream or wine and join people who have been through or are going through leaving a Narcissist. This group is meant to provide support to those who feel alone, unsupported and misunderstood. Leaving a Narcissist is NEVER easy and hearing others' stories whatever stage of their journey is healing. If you feel comfortable sharing your story, please do, but if not, come and listen and know you are not alone. Everyone will get a chance to share, so I'm limiting the amount of attendees.

FEE: $25. This cost is designed to ensure attendance for first timers. Our regular group meetings are free of charge. If this group appears to be a good fit, you can join any of the free meetings, special event meetings and monthly support meetings upon invite.

Please note that if you fail to attend the event and no-show, this fee is non-refundable as we are holding open a spot for you and have alotted time for your share. If you cannot make the event due to an unforeseen circumstance and can contact us BEFORE the event takes place, we can fit you into an upcoming meeting as long as this is communicated to us beforehand

YOUR ORGANIZER: I know how hard it is to 'get out' - 20 years ago, I successfully cut out my narcissistic mother using no contact and 'grey rock' to much success. Since then, I've raised three awesome kids, got a law degree and wrote two books. I felt successful, happy and ready to move on from a fairly normal 13 year marriage when I got into an intimate long distance relationship with a narcissist. After a year of all sorts of abuse, I recently got out and can't believe I've let this happen in my romantic life. (I couldn't choose my parent, but I could choose my partner!) Looking forward to hearing everyone's story in a low-key online meetup.

THIS GROUP IS FOR FIRST TIMERS ONLY. PLEASE DO NOT SIGN UP FOR THIS IF YOU HAVE ALREADY ATTENDED ONE OF OUR MEETINGS.

ALL ZOOM LINKS ARE SENT VIA EMAIL (WHATEVER YOU SIGNED UP FOR WITH MEETUP) THE MORNING OF THE MEETING. PLEASE ENSURE YOU HAVE YOUR SETTINGS TURNED ON TO RECEIVE EMAILS FROM MEETUP AS ALL OF OUR LINKS ARE SENT THIS WAY TO ALL MEETINGS*
