[Healing Series] Narcissism in Adoptive Parents with Katy Perkins, LICSW-S

325 | [Healing Series] Narcissism in Adoptive Parents with Katy Perkins, LICSW-S

This is a special episode in our healing series where I interview therapists who are also adoptees themselves, so they know from personal experience what it feels like to be an adoptee. Today we are joined by Katy Perkins to talk about a hot topic in our community, narcissism in adoptive parents. We talk about what it would have looked like to grow up in a family with a narcissistic parent or one with narcissistic tendencies, the impact it could have had on us as kids and now into adulthood. I was fascinated by everything Katy had to share in this conversation and I hope it's helpful for you!
