Love Bombing, Trauma Bonds & Why Leaving Can Feel So Hard

This eight-module psychoeducational course from Caterpillar Rising helps adult women understand love bombing, unhealthy relationship patterns, trauma bonds, and the many emotional and practical reasons difficult relationships can be hard to leave. Using clear psychological explanations, realistic examples, reflection activities, and practical exercises, it focuses on behaviours and patterns rather than diagnosing people or assigning labels. Learners will explore what safe, respectful love can look like while rebuilding confidence in their own needs, boundaries, and judgement.
