The world’s leading expert In Betrayal Recovery.
My research uncovered something most people never learn: betrayal is its own distinct trauma — and there’s a proven, predictable pathway through it. That discovery changed everything. For hundreds of thousands of people. For coaches. For companies. Maybe for you.

About Dr. Debi
I didn’t choose betrayal research.
It chose me
After her own experience of betrayal, Dr. Debi earned her PhD at 50 and spent the next decade uncovering how people truly heal — work that became The PBT® Institute, two TEDx talks, bestselling books, and National Forgiveness Day. Then, at 60, she did something most experts never do: she outgrew it, and turned her focus to helping people build their healthiest, happiest, most confident next chapter.
