Psychological abuse – also often called mental or emotional abuse – is a topic that is often not taken seriously or easily overlooked by a lot of people. Yet, it can cut deeper than a knife and leave more severe wounds and bruises than physical abuse.

The difficulty of this type of abuse is that it is not easily seen by others, and therefore, it is up to the individual who is being emotionally abused to prove the seriousness of what is going on.

Emotional abuse is complex, making it vastly important for us to clearly understand and learn more about it.

For that reason, we on the podcast of Inner Path Seekers have invited Signe M. Hegestand, a licensed psychologist from Denmark who specializes in helping people who are suffering from emotional abuse.

Hegestand, as you will hear in the interview, comes from an abusive marriage, where she was emotionally abused for more than 23 years. 

This experience makes her, in my opinion, the perfect person to talk about this topic. If you are about to listen to the interview, I truly hope you will find meaningful information in it that would help you or someone deal with this topic and find freedom from it.
