Re-Parenting Your Vulnerable Child Mode: On Parenting and Schema Therapy, w/ Jennifer McDonough

Re-Parenting Your Vulnerable Child Mode: On Parenting and Schema Therapy, w/ Jennifer McDonough

Jennifer McDonough (she/her) is a force to be reckoned with. In just two years as a content creator, she has amassed hundreds of thousands of followers collectively on Instagram and TikTok as @thickabodcranebpd, posting authentic and raw content about her struggles with BPD, parenting, and grief. She is unapologetically herself - and this is why I was so delighted to be able to speak with her about her recovery journey.


In this episode, Jen and I get to chat about:

  • How does anger show up for us and how is it linked to our child modes?
  • How has awareness of her trauma and BPD influenced Jennifer's parenting style?
  • What does finding balance and setting boundaries with her child look like?
  • Should people with BPD have kids?
  • Which therapy modalities has Jennifer tried? How have they benefitted her?
  • How does EMDR work? What is a trauma network?
  • What is schema therapy and how does it help?
  • What is Vulnerable Child Mode? Can people switch into different modes?
  • What does soothing her vulnerable child mode look like for Jennifer?
