Next Thursday, October 3rd, I will be doing my first webinar with Donna Andersen, founder of the nonprofit, Lovefraud Education and Recovery. It will be live starting at 6:30 p.m.- 8:30 pm Eastern. It will be recorded for anyone unable to participate in the live program. The description and details are below.

Donna Andersen, program administrator, launched Lovefraud.com in 2005, and has collected more than 10,000 cases of people who have been involved with sociopaths. It is a great idea to do training videos for mental health and other healthcare professionals, as well as, the general public. My webinar program is oriented to explaining my Strategic Interactive Approach for people who want to help their friends or loved ones to reclaim their personal power and reconnect in a healthy way. Estrangement is traumatic and painful for family and friends who have been cut off. This webinar will offer a combination of theory, skills and strategies to speed up the realization process that their controller is not able to truly love them in a healthy way.

Donna Andersen had unknowingly married a sociopath and narcissist. After her marriage ended and she began therapy, Donna decided to educate herself about sociopaths and predators. Sociopaths engage in emotional, psychological, physical, financial, sexual and spiritual abuse. They leave people with anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, and a multitude of physical ailments rooted in stress.

She started Lovefraud to educate and help others that were involved with sociopaths or in a controlling relationship. (You can read her story here.) Working with a team of mental health professionals — all of whom had their own experiences with sociopaths — she began offering webinars for survivors and professionals in 2016.

Donna is the author of Red Flags of Love Fraud — 10 signs you’re dating a sociopath. Her latest book Understanding the Sociopath: Why antisocials, narcissists and psychopaths break the rules of life goes on sale October 1, 2019.

You are worried sick. Your child, sibling, parent or other family member, is being controlled by someone else. This person — probably a sociopath — tells your loved one what to do, what to say, what to think. The sociopath isolates your family member, monitors communications, perhaps even dictates what to wear and when to sleep. It’s like your family member is in a cult.

In fact, it is a cult. This particular cult has one leader — the sociopath — and one follower — your loved one, who is under the sociopath’s destructive influence.

What can you do?

In this webinar, Steven Hassan, the internationally renowned cult expert, explains what your family member is going through, and how you can help. Steven, a cult survivor himself, has helped thousands of individuals and families escape and recover from mind control.

The key is enabling your family member to think independently. Steven has developed the Strategic Interactive Approach to help you counter the sociopath’s destructive influence, and encourage your loved one to make his or her own choices. In this webinar, he will explain, step-by-step, how to reach out to your family member, build a team to support him or her, and when appropriate, arrange an intervention with professionals.

Learn how to help your loved one take back his or her power, and choose to end the destructive involvement.
