Description

For our adult clients with difficult parents, there’s a constant struggle between maintaining connection and protecting themselves from getting hurt.

Especially when there have been years of parental abuse, neglect, addiction, or mental illness, it's easy for therapy to get stuck on processing the past...

...and never get to the specific steps our clients can take NOW to feel better.

The key to healthier relationships is teaching our clients how to establish boundaries.

And now, you can learn top tools for better boundaries directly from relationship expert and acclaimed clinician and author, Nedra Glover Tawwab, LCSW.

She’ll give you practical, easy-to-implement interventions that you can use right away to help your clients set better boundaries and transform their interactions with difficulty family members.

PLUS, don’t miss in-depth conversations between Nedra and key experts in the field, including Joshua Coleman, PhD, Karl Pillemer, PhD, and more!

Watch this is a rare opportunity and hear from four leading experts discuss the most crucial clinical topics!
