Karen Salmansohn used to suffer from what she calls Prince Harming Syndrome - the tendency to date “bad boys”. But one day, by accident she met psychoanalyst who pushed her to search deeply for why she’s with Prince Harming; he suggested to get out while she can. Psychoanalyst said he recognizes the man she’s with is emotionally abusive and sounds like a classic control freak with sadistic tendencies, and she is a classic masochist. . . But masochists always have the most hope for change because they always blame themselves, he said. And Karen changed her life.

She has appeared on The View, The Today Show and other TV programs. |
