On The Couch With Dr Tracie Rogers

Akilah Riley RIchardson is On the Couch discussing Ghosting. Ghosting occurs when someone ends a personal relationship by suddenly and without explanation withdrawing from all communication. It is not the same as a “break-up” or telling someone that you are ending a relationship. Ghosting involves physically disappearing from someone’s life with no indication or warning. In this 2-part episode, we will discuss why ghosting can create a unique form of grief for the person who has been ghosted. We well examine how ghosting can trigger intense emotions as rejection, fear, invalidation and inadequacy. Take a listen and learn why these acts hurt and how to manage these tough emotions.
