Setting Boundaries with a Parent You Suspect Has Borderline or Narcissistic Personality Disorder

Setting boundaries with a parent who has borderline or narcissistic personality disorder feels impossible, but it's not. In less than an hour, I'll teach you my 3-step strategy for effectively setting boundaries with a parent who has borderline or narcissistic personality disorder. 

LET'S DO THIS!
how to set boundaries with a narcissistic parent

I know you’ve tried. 

You’ve said no to your parent— then laid awake spiraling at 2am wondering if you overreacted.

You’ve tried to hold your boundaries— and been made to feel like the villain.

It’s not that you haven’t tried hard enough. It’s that no one taught you how to protect your peace when the person harming you is your parent.

That’s why I built Confident Boundaries — to give you the tools, coaching, and community you need to actually break free from the guilt and chaos.

You're not broken.

You've just been trained to think that you are.

You were taught to manage your parent's emotions.
To anticipate the blowup.
To keep the peace, even when it broke you.

That's conditioning—not a personal flaw. And, I can't wait to help you break free from it.

I’m Torie Wiksell—a licensed therapist, boundaries coach, and a cycle breaker who grew up with a narcissist mom. I built Confident Boundaries to help you stop surviving and finally start healing. I can't wait to help you catch your breath and find the light at the end of the tunnel.

Where the chaos starts to make sense. 

Each week on my podcast, You're Not Crazy, I break down the emotional manipulation, double standards, and guilt cycles adults who grew up with toxic parents get trapped in—so you can finally get some clarity as to why this feels so f*cking hard.

I also share personal stories of growing up with a narcissist mom and how I work on being an emotionally healthy adult, mom, and therapist myself.

New episodes every Tuesday. No bullsh*t. No toxic positivity. A lot of validation.
