At the age of twenty-two, Nadine's life took an unexpected turn when she married Jordan Belfort, the infamous stockbroker immortalized in the Hollywood hit "The Wolf of Wall Street." Initially, their union seemed like a modern-day fairytale, but a dark reality began to unfold beneath the surface. As their bond tightened, Jordan's façade crumbled, revealing a complex web of infidelity, narcissistic abuse, insatiable greed, and a devastating drug addiction that transformed Nadine's dream into a harrowing nightmare. The turmoil of this traumatic relationship catalyzed Nadine's remarkable journey. Fueled by her determination to help others facing similar struggles, she pursued a path of healing and transformation. She received her master’s degree in counseling and a Ph.D. in somatic psychotherapy, Dr. Nae established a thriving private practice. Her office quickly became a sanctuary for women who shared hauntingly familiar tales of entanglement with pathological lovers (PLs), trapped in the clutches of trauma bonds. She recently wrote a book, "Run Like Hell: A Therapist's Guide to Recognizing, Escaping, and Healing from .Trauma Bonds," In this seminal guide, she shares her personal narrative and the knowledge acquired over the years. Readers are granted insights into the psyche of the narcissistic pathological lover, a nuanced understanding of the traits that render certain women susceptible to their advances, and practical strategies for breaking free from the shackles of trauma bonds.
