Elizabeth Reed
Psychotherapist -
Hi There,Did you grow up with an addicted parent? Could one or both of your parents be called narcissistic? Did he or she need to be the center of attention or were you subjected to wild mood swings? Are you in a relationship with someone who sounds like this?If any or all of these apply, you probably feel like you’ve been walking on eggshells for a very long time. Family rules like “don’t think, don’t feel and don’t ask questions” were probably enforced and roles like the “peacemaker, the perfect child, the black sheep, and the scapegoat” were established.I am here to help you make sense of and change those rules and roles. Living in these emotional conditions for any amount of time can lead to feelings of depression, anxiety, fear and anger. This kind of family dysfunction frequently gets passed from generation to generation. Let me help you be the one that stands up and says, “Well, it stops here.”
