Linda Johnson: Unmasking the Four Horsemen in Emotionally Abusive Relationship | Reloscope #56

This week on Reloscope: The Relationship Science Insights Podcast, host Marie Stella is joined by licensed marriage and family therapist, Linda Johnson, to uncover the four horsemen of emotionally abusive relationships and how they manage to ride through undetected.

With over two decades of experience providing psychotherapy and supervision services, Linda specializes in helping individuals and couples overcome relationship issues, addictive disorders, and unresolved trauma. Her expertise extends far beyond the therapist’s couch, as Linda has overseen the professional growth of numerous interns and trainees throughout her years.

In this episode, Linda starts off by shedding light on the history of the term ‘four horsemen’, and what they represent in the context of emotionally abusive relationships. Together, Marie and Linda discuss signs—both internal and external—of emotionally abusive relationships, as well as the psychological and emotional effects it can bear on parties involved. To top it off, Linda shells some heartfelt advice for anyone currently in an emotionally abusive relationship.

So, tune in for insights on how to identify if you’re in one or if a friend of yours is in one—and it might not be now, but it’s always good to know for later.
