It's not lost on me that you can only control things on your end, and when dealing with a narcissistic or controlling or manipulative person, they have to be willing as well in changing their way of communicating.
Facing a divorce is never easy, but it becomes even more daunting when you're dealing with a partner who has narcissistic tendencies. In this episode of 'Starting Over Stronger', host Annie Allen sits down with Family Law Attorney Abraham Kuhl to shed light on what you need to know before filing for divorce in such challenging circumstances.
Kuhl, a seasoned Guardian ad Litem, Mediator, and Special Master, brings his wealth of experience to the table, offering practical advice on navigating the murky waters of a toxic divorce. Kuhl starts by emphasizing the importance of preparation. If you're considering divorce, it's crucial to understand the early stages and set realistic expectations. He explains how to select the right attorney—someone who not only understands family law but also has experience dealing with high-conflict personalities.
This choice can make a significant difference in protecting yourself and your children throughout the process. Safety and exit plans are another focal point. Kuhl highlights the necessity of having a solid strategy to ensure your well-being and that of your children. He also discusses the role of co-parent counseling, stressing its importance in managing interactions with a narcissistic or controlling ex-partner. Finding an expert who can mediate and help resolve conflicts is vital for maintaining some semblance of peace.
One of the key takeaways from this conversation is the concept of control. When dealing with a narcissist, you can only manage your actions and responses. Kuhl advises listeners to focus on what they can control and to seek professional guidance tailored to their unique situation. If you're in the midst of or contemplating a divorce from someone with narcissistic tendencies, this episode offers invaluable insights and practical steps to help you navigate this difficult journey.
Tune in to learn how to protect yourself and your children while setting the stage for a healthier future.
