Curious about the invisible bond that may be influencing your relationships, and wondering why it brings both comfort and pain? In this video, Jess OHC clinical director and psychotherapist, delves into the concept of a trauma bond. Jess explains what a trauma bond is, identifies its signs, and shares practical steps on how to break free.

A trauma bond is an intense emotional connection formed between a person who has experienced abuse and their abuser. These bonds can develop in various relationships, including families, friends, and romantic partnerships, often arising in situations where there is an imbalance of power that can be exploited. This emotional bond can make it challenging for people to distance themselves from the source of trauma, but it's possible to break free.
