Having proudly and wholeheartedly served- and learned from Berkshire families, children and young adults, and adults for over 22 years, I recognize that we are facing unprecedented challenges, with diminishing resources. Heeding the call for more helpers, I have launched a group practice. My vision is to foster and amplify the skillsets of emerging private practice therapists. Collaborative Endeav

ors, LLC will be a space for passionate, and deeply- invested therapists who will offer therapy across the lifespan via individual, family and group modalities. This group practice is Berkshire-centered, anti-racist, trauma-informed, LGBT+ affirming. We are all about establishing networks of support and collaborative problem-solving as antidote for the overwhelming pull of scarcity mindset during this unprecedented time of challenges and diminishing resources.

Introducing our new LOGO, commissioned by our own beloved and exquisite, Stef Quetti. Stef captured our values of interconnectedness and our shared belief that healing is not linear with rigid lines. Rather, it is circular, with revisitations of “old” challenges, joys, anniversaries, glimmers, and grief points. We are a collective of humans who have significant artful and skillful offerings of hope, innovation, whimsy, and boundless devotion for those we serve. We do not cling to hierarchies. We celebrate our unique quirks, talents, and life affirming discoveries in collaboration with our community. Thank you, Stef, for your magic of visual art, your immense appreciation for human development, boundless playfulness, your celebration of tiny, but mighty change points that pivot towards growth and your tender nurturing of the lives you touch!

Most people think abuse has to be loud before they are allowed to call it abuse. They think if someone is not shouting, hitting, threatening, or openly controlling you, then maybe you are overreacting. Maybe you are too sensitive. Maybe you are imagining things.

But that is exactly how covert narcissistic abuse survives.
Because sometimes they do not insult you directly, they make you feel something is off without saying anything. Sometimes they do not stop you from going out, they make you feel guilty for having friends, having a life, or enjoying yourself without them. Sometimes they do not openly destroy your career, they slowly push you to stay home, make you dependent, and then control the money. Sometimes they do not raise their voice, they rewrite what happened to get away with the abuse. Sometimes they hurt you deeply and then act as if nothing happened, so you are forced to carry the pain alone while they move on like nothing was done.

This is why covert narcissistic abuse is so confusing. It does not always look like abuse from the outside. To other people, they may look calm, kind, helpful, religious, responsible, and respectable. But inside the home, they slowly shape your choices, weaken your confidence, control your freedom, and make you doubt your own reality.

And when children are involved, this becomes even more serious.

Because now you are not just trying to survive the narcissist. You are also trying to protect your child’s mind, emotions, confidence, and relationship with reality while the narcissist keeps playing games through parenting, communication, guilt, money, schedules, and image.

That is why I created my co-parenting course. It will help you understand how narcissists use children, communication, and emotional pressure to keep control, and how you can respond with strategy instead of reacting from pain. If you are co-parenting with a narcissist and you need a clear, practical path, join the co-parenting course. Link is in my bio.
