Women often come into therapy with symptoms like depression, low self-esteem, a perpetual sense of inadequacy, unhealthy relationship patterns, addictions, and self-sabotage. The root of their problems may be the same debilitating background story: they had narcissistic mothers, whose own needs always came first and who were unable to give their daughters the love and validation they needed, or even really know them. In this workshop, we'll explore the disempowering impact such mothers have on their daughters. You'll learn a structured approach that helps these daughters work through their feelings of grief, disappointment, emptiness, and self-doubt and construct a step-by-step plan for reclaiming their lives, enhancing their sense of self, and learning to deal differently with their mothers.
