Avoidant Abuse | The Abuse Technique of the New Age

Author: Dr Rhea Khan

Avoidant abuse often hides in plain sight, disguised as autonomy, boundaries, or “moving on.”

This book exposes the silent, covert tactics used during breakups, ghosting, stonewalling, banishment, and reveals how they cause deep psychological harm.

It challenges cultural myths, holds abusers accountable, and offers a powerful lens for recognising, naming, and healing from the trauma of being discarded, erased, and emotionally exiled.

Instead of silencing or shaming them, Dr. Schwartz invites us to understand, honour, and unburden these parts, unlocking deep healing, trauma recovery, and a more compassionate connection to self and others.
