You may be looking for help and are not sure what to do. Perhaps your teen hasn’t gone to school for 2 weeks, hasn’t seen a friend on a weekend for months, cuts herself, or only got into his “safety school” and feels like a failure. If you are an adult with a narcissistic parent you may struggle to set limits with your parent, caught between a sense of loyalty and the need to take care of yourself or your own family, and feel that is almost impossible that anyone could understand your story.
Perhaps you panic if you drive too far from home, feel overwhelmed keeping your child with ADHD on track, or managing work and family. Perhaps your child can’t fall asleep at night unless she sleeps with you, clings to you every morning before school, or seems “shy” but you wonder about selective mutism.
With twenty years’ experience as a psychologist, I help parents, children, teens, and adults with narcissistic parents lead happier lives.
