“I came upon Spin Cycle Coaching and it has been an amazing experience for me. While you are given the opportunity to describe whatever is concerning you at the time, it is not just a vent session. It is a session geared at solutions. She listens carefully and pinpoints where our own individual strengths and values have become the weapons used against us.
It is an extremely eye opening experience. After each session, you leave knowing a little more about yourself and also feel like you have a plan to work on that one piece until the next time. I find myself thinking and catching myself in my old patterns or thoughts and revising them remembering the session. I highly recommend Spin Cycle Coaching, as I am starting to see the person I once was returning gradually as we work on breaking down years of emotional abuse by a narcissist.”

Is Coaching Right for Me?
Coaching that specializes in narcissistic abuse recovery is different from therapy. Our coaches are trained to help you look ahead and move forward, while therapy takes a comprehensive overview of your past, present, and future. If you’re not sure which is right for you, we are happy to provide insight and help you access the resources you need.
Victims of narcissistic abuse can use coaching to put the pieces back together. We help you grasp your current situation, set healthy boundaries, and navigate the following situations:
Relationships with friends, family, or work associates
Household or economic transitions, alienation of relationships, emotional needs of children, co-parenting
Mediation or the court system
Abusers can take the form of parents, partners, siblings, and even coworkers. If you feel like it’s time to break the cycle of abuse, Spin Cycle Coaching is here to guide you.
How Coaching Works
Step 1: Recognize your response.
Narcissistic abuse victims are conditioned to react in certain ways to survive. This is also known as a trauma response. While you may have heard of “fight or flight” reactions, there are additional reactions you may tap into when engaging with the narcissist in your life:
Flight: Moving away from a trauma.
Fight: Moving towards the trauma in an assertive or aggressive way.
Freeze: Staying put and living in trauma, which can lead to the Fawn response.
Fawn: Avoiding conflict and drama by appeasing the other party.
Your coach can help you recognize your reactions, ultimately giving you the tools to break the role your abuser has assigned you.
Step 2: Reset the rules.
When you stop reacting in expected ways and learn how to respond, you destabilize the spin cycle. This shifts the dynamic of the relationship and helps you reclaim your own power.
With the support of your coach, you’ll learn to:
Reduce your susceptibility to emotional triggers.
Trust your gut instincts and tap into your strengths.
Stop “people-pleasing”.
Set firm boundaries.
Reinforce your position when there is an attempt to dismantle it.
Step 3: Restore your power.
Reclaiming power begins once you understand the cycle of toxicity. New communication tools at your disposal help you identify when your abuser tries to gaslight you. As a result, you can use these skills to regain control over your responses and yourself as a whole. We help you incorporate these changes into your daily life and guide how you approach challenges.
As your dedicated narcissistic abuse recovery coach, we promise to:
Listen thoughtfully as you describe your situation, values, and concerns.
Identify what you would consider a successful outcome.
Identify proven tactics to realize your goals.
Equip you with new ways of responding.
Rehearse or replay situations to help you reclaim your power.
