Are you in that stage of life where it’s starting to feel like YOU are the parent to your parents? Or maybe it’s always been that way?

In this episode of But Are You Happy, clinical psychologist Dr. Anastasia Hronis unpacks parentification and how to recover when your parents have made you the mediator between them or put you in charge of holding onto their emotional baggage.

You'll also learn:

  • The emotional and developmental consequences of parentification
  • How you know if you've been 'parentified'
  • Ways you can repair yourself and your relationship with your parents
  • How to identify and acknowledge your inner child
