: Coach for People Who Grew Up with an Unavailable Parent

Expert Overview

I coach people who grew up with an unavailable parent so that they can heal old wounds and move forward being able to manage triggers from the past.

An Unavailable Parent can be defined in many ways.

  • Growing up without a father or mother, divorce, death, fostered, adopted
  • Having a parent who was emotionally unavailable: unable to connect, converse or engage
  • Having a parent who was there but unavailable: workaholic, narcissist, substance abuse
  • Parents who had parents that were unavailable: continuing the cycle
  • Parents who only accept their children when they are "perfect" and reject them when they are not
  • Parents who want the child to take of of them during the child's adolescence

I have found that there are many different circumstances, but the effects are the same.

  • Feeling not good enough
  • Searching for acceptance
  • Trust issues
  • Relationship issues - unable to fully connect
  • Control issues
  • Endlessly searching for something to take away the broken or emptiness inside
  • Triggers from the past
  • People pleasing
  • Problems with self-worth/self-love
