As a 22-year-old, Nadine never could have understood what she was committing to when marrying Jordan Belfort, the fraudulent stockbroker infamously known as the Wolf of Wall Street. Through surviving her own trauma bond, she discovered the increasing need for therapists who are informed on domestic violence, trauma bonding, and so much more. She returned to school at the age of 39 to become a licensed Psychotherapist and now holds a PhD in Counseling and Somatic Psychology.

Dr. Nadine has her own private practice and has spent the last two years writing her book "Run Like Hell" to help you find hope, healing, and education.
