Insight is 20/20 
How To Trust Yourself To Protect Yourself
From Narcissistic Abuse & Toxic Relationships
By Chelli Pumphrey, MA, LPC

Most survivors of toxic relationships do not have histories of significant trauma, nor are they codependent. Instead, they have certain personality traits that make them vulnerable to this relationship abuse.

​

In Insight Is 20/20: How To Trust Yourself To Protect Yourself From Narcissistic Abuse & Toxic Relationships, Chelli Pumphrey's anecdotes, clinical examples, and research teach you about the signals of your body that can alert you to the dangers of a pathological partner. You'll learn how to prevent, identify, or leave abusive or toxic relationships.

​

Inside, you will receive answers to:

 

  • How can I tell if my partner is a narcissist or has a personality disorder?

  • What are the signs of narcissistic abuse?

  • Why is it so hard for me to leave my toxic relationship?

  • Why do I keep attracting narcissists and abusive partners?

  • What techniques or tools can help me trust my gut when choosing a partner?

​

Insight is 20/20 is a must-read, debunking the myths associated with narcissistic and toxic partners, opening your eyes to the real reasons that impact your vulnerability, and how to prevent these relationships.

Kind words

“When constant phone calls and text messages at work are framed as worry, and frequent criticism masquerades as helpfulness, displays of extreme jealousy are claimed to be manifestations of deep love, and the very things that enable you to leave are used to ensnare you, it’s not surprising that the red flags that warn of a toxic relationship can be easily dismissed, misinterpreted or missed all-together by survivors of narcissistic abuse. Chelli Pumphrey’s book Insight is 20/20 is an important resource because it not only covers the red flags, but it teaches you how to identify and act on the internal red flags, which are usually not taught, and often more telling.“

"Insight Is 20/20 is an extremely well written and researched book which the reader surely will have many pages that are dog-eared and have yellow highlights in each chapter. Chelli provides a complete picture of a narcissist and reasons we fall blindly into relationship with them. As a trauma psychotherapist and a survivor of an abusive narcissistic relationship, I found the book to be a wealth of information; insightful, comprehensive and an easy read. Chelli writes with transparency and professional examples peppered throughout the book, as she communicates ways to identify a narcissist and the toxic relationship they create with others. *Insight Is 20/20* is ** essential for anyone who has been traumatized in a narcissistic relationship, or professionals working with clients who have been injured by narcissistic people.”
