Surviving the Impact of growing up with a Narcissistic Caregiver –Â back by popular demand !
Many survivors of complex trauma struggle with the legacy of growing up with Narcissistic Caregivers. The ‘one world’ view of a narcissistic caregiver commonly results in the need for their children to suppress their thoughts, emotions and physical responses. Their distress is ‘unnoticed, untreated, and unassisted’ within their home environment. Sole focus remains on the narcissistic caregiver whose moods control the ’emotional temperature’ of the family.
Most survivors of narcissistic parenting arrive in adulthood feeling that something is deeply wrong with them. They often struggle with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem and difficulties within their family of origin. Birchtree’s Masterclass provides survivors with an opportunity to explore the legacy of living with a Narcissistic Caregiver.
Topics covered within the Masterclass include:
