Gaslit by Professionals: Tracy Shannon’s Story of Marital Betrayal

from Kelly Oliver Dougall · host Kelly Oliver Dougall

"My husband's counsellor said I was a lesbian."When Tracy Shannon’s husband began to transition, she didn't just lose her marriage—she lost her right to her own reality. In this raw and unfiltered interview, Tracy discusses the "professional" gaslighting she faced and the erasure of her identity as a wife.Are you walking on eggshells at home? Most mainstream counsellors will tell you that you must 'affirm' your partner’s new identity, even if it feels like a betrayal of your truth. I do not work that way. I provide a safe, private, and non-affirming space for women to speak their truth and process their grief without being called a bigot.In this interview, we discuss:The shocking labels placed on wives of trans-identifying men.How "professionals" often prioritise ideology over the family unit.The reality of ambiguous loss and the search for solid ground.BOOK A PRIVATE SESSION: If you need a counsellor who understands the unique pain of the trans widow experience, visit my website: kellyoliverdougall.co.uk/counselling#TransWidow #TracyShannon #CounsellingUK #WomenSilenced #genderideology Where to find Tracy Shannon (:X (Twitter): @MadMommaBear2 Website: MassResistance.org Substack: can be found by searching for Tracy Shannon or MadMommaBear.Get the 4 F's Survival Toolkit for free now https://kellyoliverdougall.co.uk/youre-not-a-bigot-youre-grieving/I help women work through the issues I talk about on my channel through my counselling private practice.You can book a free consultation with me at kellyoliverdougall.co.uk/counselling
