E 205 Overcoming Parental Rejection: Strategies That Work
Description
In my latest episode, I dive deep into the complex issue of parent-child rejection, especially in the context of divorce and custody disputes. My guest, Cathy Himlin, brings over 25 years of experience as a licensed marriage and family therapist to shed light on this challenging topic.
Cathy shares valuable insights on:
- The various reasons children might reject a parent, beyond the usual assumptions
- How parental anxiety and emotional states can influence children's behaviors
- Effective techniques for reconnecting with children, including emotion coaching
- Practical advice for maintaining contact during separation
Whether you're personally dealing with family law issues or work in a related field, this episode offers a fresh perspective on parent-child relationships during difficult times.
Cathy also discusses her specialized parenting class and upcoming book, both designed to help parents navigate these complex situations.
I found this conversation enlightening and believe many of you will too. It's a must-listen for anyone interested in family dynamics, divorce impacts, or child psychology.
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on this episode.
