Breaking the Illusion

In Breaking the Illusion, author Gaea K. Coon shares her intimate journey, the story of a psychotherapist who discovers she is in an abusive relationship during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. She chronicles her path in breaking the generational cycle of abuse, healing trauma, and returning to her true self.
By telling her story, Coon brings awareness to others regarding childhood trauma, narcissistic abuse, and abusive relationships, chronicling her awakening, death, and rebirth. She inspires others to share their truth, voice their stories, reduce stigma, alleviate shame, and assist in healing.
Trauma surrounds us all-not just combat soldiers, but also a neighbor who just lost their child in a car accident, a sibling who was assaulted, a friend who is in an abusive relationship, a child who is neglected, and many others. But healing can happen, and healthier relationships can be formed.
