RHOBERTA SHALER, PhD
The Relationship Help Doctor
Host: Save Your Sanity Podcast – Help for Toxic Relationships
URGENT & ONGOING CARE FOR RELATIONSHIPS IN CRISIS
The Relationship Help Doctor, Rhoberta Shaler, PhD, provided urgent and ongoing care for relationships in crisis. Even the United States Marines called on her for help!
Dr. Shaler’s focus in the past decade was on helping partners, exes, and adult children of the relentlessly difficult, toxic people she calls Hijackals® to save their sanity and stop the crazy-making. She coined the term Hijackals® in 2015, and defined it as “people who hijack relationships–for their own purposes–while relentlessly scavenging them for power, status, and control.”
The legacy of her incredible body of work, over 30+ years as a speaker, author, consultant, counselor, and therapist, offers the insights, strategies, and support you need to reclaim hope, confidence–and your sanity–when dealing with the constant uncertainty and jaw-dropping behaviors of Hijackals in your life, at home and at work.
Author of sixteen books, including her Hijackal ebook series, Escaping the Hijackal Trap, and, Stop! That’s Crazy-Making, she created and hosted the popular podcast, Save Your Sanity: Help for Toxic Relationships.
Dr. Shaler’s work has been featured on PsychCentral, Cosmopolitan, Good Housekeeping, Your Tango, The Good Men Project, and eHarmony, among many others.
Her YouTube channel, ForRelationshipHelp, is an evergreen source of practical insights and tips for relationships and has reached over two million views.
