Who are we?
We are a non-profit coalition of researchers, mental health professionals, survivors, and families affected by psychopathy. Our mission is to offer support, share knowledge, and connect those impacted by this disorder.
What We Offer
Our Mission
The Aftermath: Surviving Psychopathy is dedicated to raising awareness about and reducing the negative impact of individuals with psychopathic traits.
Our Vision
We envision a future with less harm from psychopathy—where greater awareness leads to better prevention, treatment, and support for victims, families, and those with psychopathic traits.
What is psychopathy?
Psychopathy is a personality disorder signified by a pattern of lying, exploitation of others, recklessness, arrogance, sexual promiscuity, low self-control, and lack of empathy for others. Individuals with psychopathic traits appear to lack social emotions (love, empathy, guilt, and remorse).

About Aftermath
Founded in 2006 by Dr. David Kosson, Aftermath: Surviving Psychopathy began as a collaboration between researchers, clinicians, and survivors to support those affected by psychopathy. With support from Drs. Robert Hare and Paul Babiak, the website launched in 2008 as a space for education, connection, and healing.
