Your Mom’s Fine… Until She Isn’t: A Therapist’s Guide

Описание: What if your nervous system learned that love required self-abandonment?

In this episode, therapists Cristine Seidell and Taylor Strong explore emotionally immature parents and how limited emotional capacity, stress, and intergenerational patterns shape attachment. We break down fawning and freeze responses, people-pleasing, and how early adaptations show up in adult relationships.

You’ll learn:
• What emotional immaturity actually means (regulation, reflection, and capacity)
• Why siblings remember the same home differently
• How to identify fawning and freeze in couples dynamics
• What real repair and accountability sound like
• How to set boundaries rooted in nervous system safety
• When limited contact, structured engagement, or no contact may fit your capacity

We also discuss grief for the parent you needed, rebuilding self-trust, and choosing relationships that reciprocate.
