The Narcissistic Abuse Recovery Code
Trauma Informed
Nervous System-Led
CPD Accredited
Supportive Community
is a comprehensive trauma informed and nervous system led recovery and education system for people who have experienced narcissistic abuse and are ready to understand what happened and heal the impact it left behind.
Because narcissistic abuse isn’t random.
It follows patterns.
And once you understand the code, everything changes.
This is for PERSONAL use only and not training for you to use with your clients.
Caroline is and trained and skilled professional in many modalities and using this outside of own personal healing is breaching IP, terms and conditions and ethically dangerous.
Because narcissistic abuse isn't random, it follows patterns. And once you understand the code,
EVERYTHING CHANGES.

This programme is for survivors who want clarity without collapse and for those who may later choose to support others from a trauma informed place.
It is the knowledge most people wish they had before the damage was done.
The Narcissistic Abuse Specialist™ Programme includes
Every enrolment into The Narcissistic Abuse Recovery Code includes automatic access to The Narcissistic Abuse Recovery Club.
This is a private, supportive trauma informed recovery Facebook community for people healing from narcissistic abuse, domestic abuse and coercive control held within a shared trauma informed and nervous system led learning environment.
This is a space where healing comes first and education exists to help you make sense of what you are feeling, not override it.
The Narcissistic Abuse Recovery Club
Narcissistic abuse isolates.
A safe place to heal TOGETHER
Inside the Club, you are surrounded by people who:
- Have lived through narcissistic, domestic abuse or coercive control
- Are at different stages of recovery
- Are learning within my trauma informed programmes around narcissistic abuse, domestic abuse and coercive control alongside their healing
It fragments identity, safety and trust.
The Narcissistic Abuse Recovery Club exists to bring people back into safe connection with others who understand this experience and with themselves.
This community supports you where recovery actually happens in the moments that trigger fear, shame or collapse.
Healing support for real-life moments
Members use the Club to get support around things like:
You are not expected to share details you are not ready to share.
You can ask questions, reflect, or simply read and absorb.
Healing happens at your pace.
One of the most powerful parts of this Club is being alongside others.
Community as part of the healing
You will be with people who:
- Are just beginning to name what they experienced
- Are further along and can gently say, “This will pass”
- Are integrating learning into their own healing
- Understand the nervous-system impact of abuse
There is no fixing, no rescuing, no comparison.
Just shared understanding, safety and hope.
Education inside the Club exists to support healing, not to overwhelm it.
Healing supported by learning not replaced by it
Learning helps you:
- Make sense of your reactions
- Reduce self-blame and shame
- Understand why your body responds the way it does
- Feel less “broken” and more human
All learning is trauma informed, paced and grounded in nervous-system awareness.
You are never expected to perform, analyse, or “know the right answer.”
The Narcissistic Abuse Recovery Club includes:
What happens inside the Club
Everything is held with care, boundaries and psychological and physiological safety.
What this space is...
The Narcissistic Abuse Recovery Club is:
- A supportive healing community
- Grounded in trauma-informed care and nervous-system safety
- Designed to reduce isolation and restore connection
Members are gently supported to access the right level of help when deeper personal work is needed.
Why this Club matters
Healing from narcissistic abuse is not something you should have to do alone.
This Club exists because:
There is no other space like this that brings together:
All within one safe container.
The Narcissistic Abuse Recovery Club is a core part of
The Narcissistic Abuse Recovery Code.
Part of your Recovery Code
A place to feel less alone.
A place to heal.
A place to gently rebuild your life TOGETHER
Why this works when other approaches don’t
Most survivors either:
Learn everything about narcissism but stay traumatised
The Recovery Code does both.
It gives you:
- Language for what you lived through
- A framework that makes sense of the confusion
- A nervous-system-led pathway out of survival mode
- Protection against repeating the same relational patterns.
Understanding is not the end goal.
Freedom, safety and peace is.

Hello, I’m Caroline Strawson, a multi-award winning certified Trauma Informed Therapist & Coach and founder of The Mental Wellbeing Company and The School of Healing & Growth.
I may be all that, but I am, first and foremost, human. Just like you.
In 2010, I experienced a series of life changing traumatic events. My mum, who was my rock, died very suddenly, and my husband walked out on me and our two children. He was a covert narcissist and I did not know what I had experienced and about the post separation abuse that was to ensue
I was left with over £70,000 ($85,000) worth of debt and at that time; I didn’t even realise I’d experienced narcissistic abuse, which is a form of domestic abuse. I was at rock bottom, a shell of myself.
Eventually, I was diagnosed with complex PTSD, and realised that I was suffering from depression, anxiety, panic attacks, and self harm. All the while thinking “How could an intelligent woman like myself, with a medical background, find herself in this situation!?!”
I felt stupid, alone, isolated, and in a very dark place. No one seemed to understand what I was going through, and the more I seemed to talk about the (narcissistic) abuse I suffered, the more I felt misunderstood. This just perpetuated my feelings of not feeling worthy or good enough.
The truth is, I needed someone who understood my trauma, but that person didn’t exist.
My personal journey with abuse, trauma and healing, paired with my background in neuroscience and professional coaching experience and therapy, inspired me to take this path to educate people like you so that you can understand how your experiences have impacted you and how you can heal.

Why Should You Listen To Me?
I Don’t Want Anyone Else to Suffer the Pain I Did for as Long as I Did. Over the years, I’ve worked hard to educate myself in this space to ensure that I can help more sufferers of trauma to heal deeply. I want you to have your own personal EVOLUTION just like I have because life is for living and not existing, and I spent decades merely existing.
