18. Relating to Dysfunctional Parents: Communication, Boundaries and Going No Contact

In this episode, we dive into a topic that can be both incredibly challenging and also deeply healing – navigating relationships with our parents. This is a topic that many childhood trauma survivors struggle with, especially when we have grown up in environments where our boundaries and our needs weren't respected or even acknowledged. Here, we unpack how to relate to dysfunctional parents and how to navigate these challenging parent-child dynamics. We explore how to protect and advocate for your inner child, whilst also balancing the needs of your healthy adult self. I offer some practical tips for setting and enforcing boundaries, and look at managing expectations with parents and practicing acceptance. And finally, for those of you who may be considering it, we'll be wrapping up this episode by discussing when and how to go no contact.
