Guilt Trips, Criticism, Lies, And Healing From The Narcissistic Family System with Psychotherapists Katie McKenna and Helen Villiers

Self-Helpless

Delanie Fischer is joined by psychotherapists, Katie McKenna and Helen Villiers, to discuss the impact of being raised by a narcissistic parent, and how it affects the entire family system. Katie and Helen provide everyday examples of what these dynamics can look like, why it can be extremely challenging for a survivor of this type of abuse to acknowledge their own experience (and why there's no such thing as an "empath"), and what steps can be taken towards healing and unlearning unhealthy behaviors.
