Perhaps you grew up with a parent or two that treated you like you would never be enough, or maybe you felt like you never were. Maybe your parent constantly threatened to leave you... Maybe they did leave. If you have dealt with walking on eggshells, being afraid to voice your own thoughts and be who you truly are for fear of criticism, jealousy, backlash or verbal or physical abuse you most likely had a parent with narcissistic traits-- or, was a full blown narcissist.
Today psychologist, codependency and narcissistic parent expert and founder of the Codependency Clinic Rachel Rosenfeld joins me to talk all about this and how you can better handle having a relationship with a parent who is a narcissist.
Dr. Rosenfeld is the director of The Codependency Clinic and the founder of Alameda Counseling Services, a non-profit providing psychological services to low- and moderate-income individuals in Alameda, CA. She received her PsyD in Clinical Psychology at John F. Kennedy University in 2011; her dissertation topic explored increasing hope in adolescents using community service.
She completed her pre-doctoral internship at Family Institute of Pinole where she worked with families, adults and adolescents who were impacted by trauma using EMDR. Rachel then completed her post-doctoral internship in the Addiction Medicine Department at Kaiser Permanente where she stayed for the next seven years to focus on treatment for adults and adolescents struggling with addiction. Rachel started The Codependency Clinic with the intention to offer the highest level of therapy treatment available.
