Transcript: Women Share How They Found The Best Betrayal Trauma Support Group
Betrayal Trauma Victim #1:โ Even though my husband had been unfaithful and had a problem with viewing exploitative content. Therapists looked at our issues as a “couple problem.” The multiple therapists we saw had years of experience, but they knew nothing whatsoever about betrayal trauma, integrity issues or addiction, or the emotional abuse involved.
In fact, my husband was able to successfully gaslight one therapist to the point where he told me that if I would become a, quote, safe person, my husband would quit lying to me. I bet you can guess the result
Yep, my husband lied to me again, and again, and again. It was never about me. So when I finally found BTR, my husband and I had spent over 10 years and 10,000 in and out of couples counseling. Thankfully, everything turned almost on a dime the day I read an article on gaslighting from BTR. This was one of the biggest aha moments of my entire life. It was almost as if I could hear the angel singing in the background as 26 painful years of fog began to lift.
I immediately set up a coaching appointment with one of the BTR coaches and for the first time ever found someone who got it immediately. It’s the best support for betrayal trauma. I didn’t have to convince her, educate her, or prove โa thing. She knew exactly what I was going through because she had been there, too. After years and years and thousands of dollars spent on traditional therapy, I finally found someone who understood exactly what I was going through, named it, educated me, and provided the support and contagious courage needed to become empowered to stop the abuse
Why Should I Attend Betrayal Trauma Recovery Support Group Sessions?
โBetrayal Trauma Victim #2: I remember the day that I first found BTR.
I was sitting on my back porch listening that day, desperately seeking some kind of help for my soul. I listened to Anne calling Betrayal what it really is, and acknowledging the pain and trauma that it really causes to us women. That podcast changed my life. I burst into tears of healing, validation.
Finally, someone was calling exploitative content use as betrayal. The harm that it actually is. Someone was seeing how abusive it is. Finally, someone had put together all the pieces of the puzzle and so many things finally began to make sense. It was my first moment of validation and clarity. Anne set me on my path of strength and healing right that moment because she was brave enough to share her own strength and healing.
BTR group is the most healing place a woman can possibly be after experiencing betrayal of any sort. It’s a safe, sacred, and healing space. The abuse informed and trained coaches are amazing, loving and wise, and they all remind us there is healing to be found as you navigate through this experience of betrayal trauma.
I just want to give a beg forever thank you to Anne, the Betrayal Trauma Coaches, and to BTR.

It’s So nice to know that like I’m not the only one. I just really appreciate the viewing exploitative content is abuse period because it’s so easily pushed to the side as a non-issue and it’s affecting so many really pure, noble women.
It helps me feel empowered to take the next step in my journey, whatever that step might be. I just want people to know that they’re not alone, they can listen to their intuition and by coming to BTR and sharing in a safe way, you feel more empowered after you leave the session every time.

โโโBetrayal Trauma Victim #5: โBTR has been a group that has completely changed my life. It was something I didn’t even know was out there, didn’t even know that I needed, but has been a godsend. It’s life changing. The coaches are just your sister and they walk with you.
They help you all along the way. It’s also been good just to be able to watch the other ladies in here, to know that you have a group of people that completely understand where you are, what you’re going through, and even to see the progress you get inspired by their walk. To see the growth that they’ve done to now have the knowledge that we need to move forward to heal.
Whether we decide to stay or goal, BTR just really helps to heal us one step at a time and from the inside out. So I’m so appreciative of this group. It’s the best betrayal trauma resource.

What is a Betrayal Trauma Support Group Like?
โโโBetrayal Trauma Victim #6:โI was desperate for help and search the internet for answers. I came across info on gaslighting. So this is what I’d been experiencing in my marriage for 26 years. And there’s a name for it. It was literally a mind blowing revelation for me that led me to the BTR website where I went on a podcast binge.
And listen to everything I could get my hands on. The fog of gaslighting began to lift and with the help of one of the coaches, I gained the courage to set some significant and appropriate boundaries. Her sessions were very informative and practical with examples, in a safe situation with feedback and encouragement.
Are Any Betrayal Trauma Support Groups Online?
Betrayal Trauma Victim #7: โThe BTR community is amazing. The support groups, everyone gets it.
There is no judgment. There’s no feelings of being victimized like with some therapists. I truly feel that everyone who participates validates our experience. the coaches Offer very helpful feedback and suggestions. A wealth of information. And I appreciate that people will share what has worked and also what hasn’t worked for them.
I really appreciate the ease of use. Many different times during the day that you can connect with the coaches. You don’t have to wait, and you don’t have to travel. You can do it from your computer. Especially for people with kids, the ability to quickly get an appointment and not have to find a babysitter. You can, you know, toss a movie in for an hour and get your needs met.
Get that validation and that help that we’re all searching for. So I strongly suggest people try it. The fee is nominal. It’s much less than you’re ever going to find anywhere else. You can use as many groups as you want during the month, it’s the best investment you can make in your recovery.
I’m a huge fan. I love the style, the program. I love the model
