Conditional Love: The impact of growing up with an emotionally unavailable parent (talk)

About the event

Growing up with an emotionally unavailable parent often leaves deep emotional scars that shape our sense of self-worth and ability to connect with others. We learn to suppress our feelings, seek approval externally, and struggle to trust that our needs will be met. This absence of emotional support can lead to shame and a fear of vulnerability. However, by acknowledging this pain, we can begin the healing process, learn to nurture ourselves, and create healthier relationships based on authenticity and empathy.

In this talk, Dr. Janet Reibstein will shine a light on the impact of growing up with an emotionally unavailable parent so you can begin to heal the wounds you carry.
