Therapy Group Details

Group Name: Adult Children of Narcissists Group/Healing and Freedom from Critical and Controlling Parents or Partners
Location: Los Angeles - CALIFORNIA
City: Los Angeles
Phone: 3238293548
Web Page: http://www.therapist4me.com
Group Description:

This group is an amazing group for women who have been raised by critical and controlling parents or who have a critical and controlling partner/spouse - or who had one! This has been a long running group that is very successful! The women in this group typically have been raised by narcissistic parents. Often you don't realize your parent was narcissistic because the family story is that your parents and family are ideal or special. A narcissistic parent focuses on their needs over yours, the presentation of the family is more important that the family members themselves. Everyone sacrifices their needs for the needs of the parent. See my website for a detailed description of narcissistic parents and what it is like to be raised by one. The little prince or princess is a good way of describing a narcissistic parent. You may have a partner who fits this description. If you find yourself asking, "why is it always about you?" or feeling that you are never good enough and have to be perfect, you may have a narcissistic parent.

Professional Statement: Because sometimes... you need more than a friend.... As a feminist therapist I am committed to helping women learn to become more empowered, grow, and learn to find their inner wisdom. I encourage women to listen to their inner voice and instincts, learn to become grounded in their bodies and inner spirit, and live the most authentic and empowered lives they can. I have over 20 years experience in helping women, adolescents, couples and families! I specialize in feminist therapy and in helping survivors of trauma, childhood abuse, sexual abuse/assault, rape, incest, neglect, victims of crimes and other forms of traumatic experiences. I am a board certified expert in the treatment of traumatic stress and am specially trained in the treatment of trauma and dissociation, PTSD, childhood abuse and other trauma related problems. I also have over 20 years experience in working with adolescents, LGBT issues, sexual and gender identity issues and other issues related to teen and LGBT lives. I work with coming out issues, identity issues, relationships, family issues, work place concerns, friendships, spirituality, and life transitions. Out of crisis comes opportunity. I think this is why I became a trauma expert. Life crisis brings the opportunity for growth, change and a deeper love for and understanding of life if you are willing to go through the struggle of healing emotional pain. I offer a warm, sensitive, supportive and empathetic approach to therapy. I want to help you grow and overcome the challenges and opportunities that life has thrown your way! I am trained in EMDR, TAT, energy psychology, feminism and feminist therapy, sandplay, creative therapies and DNMS. I use a combination approach of Object Relations, talk therapy, creative therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, narrative therapy, ego state therapy, DBT therapy, and feminist therapy. I love what I do and love helping people grow and thrive. I love life and enjoy seeing women develop hope again!
