Should I Go To Therapy with my Narcissistic Parent? (S6 Ep2)

What happens when the parent who always refused accountability finally agrees to therapy? In this episode, Ruth and Katie explore the complex realities of dysfunctional family systems, the difference between reconciliation and repair, the risks and potential benefits of family therapy with a narcissistic or emotionally immature parent, and we delve deep into the pressure many adult children face to "keep the peace" from extended family – at the expense of their own wellbeing. If you've ever wondered whether attending one final conversation is an act of self-respect or self-betrayal, this episode is for you.
