SUMMARY:Overcoming Helplessness: 5 Steps to Help Your Stuck Adult Child
DESCRIPTION:Watching an adult child struggle with depression\, anxiety\, mental illness\, unemployment\, isolation\, or difficulty moving forward can leave parents feeling frightened\, exhausted\, and unsure of when to help and when to step back. \nDr. Jeffrey Bernstein will help parents and caregivers better understand how frequent setbacks can erode an adult child’s sense of control and\nconfidence. We will explore how patterns of rescuing\, over-functioning\, avoidance\, conflict\, and dependence can gradually take hold\, and how families can begin shifting them toward healthier patterns. \nDrawing on more than 35 years of clinical experience\, along with principles from cognitive behavioral therapy\, family psychology\, and positive psychology\, Dr. Bernstein will share five practical strategies with take-home tools for helping adult children develop greater ownership\, confidence\, and forward momentum. The program will include ample time for questions and discussion. \nJeffrey Bernstein\, Ph.D. is a licensed psychologist\, author\, and nationally recognized expert on children\, teens\, adult children\, and\nfamily relationships. He is the author of several books\, including You Ruined My Life—Now You Owe Me! and The Rescue Trap.\nHis Psychology Today blog\, Liking the Child You Love\, has reached millions of readers. \nPlease register here. \n \n
