-
This course is not therapy, nor is it a substitute for therapy. If you are experiencing a mental health crisis, this course is not for you. Instead, please contact a licensed therapist near you or seek support through the National Suicide and Crisis Lifeline by dialing or texting: 988. This course is also not appropriate for anyone who is diagnosed with a personality disorder.
This course is also not sufficient to address concerns around safety (yours or your parent's). If you are concerned about your parent becoming violent or potentially harming themself in response to you setting a boundary, please contact a licensed therapist near you or reach out to me for coaching. I can help coaching clients develop plans to appropriately address their safety concerns.

As long as you need! This is a self-guided course that you can go through at your own pace.

Yes! While this course is designed to support you with setting boundaries with a parent with borderline and/or narcissistic personality disorder, the steps inside can also be extremely helpful when implementing boundaries with other people in your life.
And, in all honesty, if you learn how to implement boundaries with a parent with BPD or NPD, you can learn how to implement boundaries with anyone :)

Meet Coach and Psychotherapist,
Torie Wiksell
In both my psychotherapy private practice and coaching business, I specialize in working with the adult children of parents who have borderline personality disorder (BPD) and narcissistic personality disorder (NPD). I’ve spent a huge part of my 11-year career as a therapist working with clients with personality disorders. And, I’ve spent the past few years working specifically with adults who have parents with BPD and NPD. It’s a really unique skill set and one I’m incredibly passionate about.
I know how chaotic and stressful it is to grow up with a BPD or NPD parent because I grew up with a mother who had unmanaged borderline personality disorder and a lot of narcissistic traits. The phrase, walking on eggshells, definitely fits, but doesn’t fully explain the intensely complicated, stressful, and confusing dynamics.
Growing up in a family like this probably made you feel crazy at times- I know I certainly did. I’ve survived a dysfunctional family system, I’ve walked through my own healing in many years of therapy (which I still do- this is not an anti-therapy website!), I’ve studied and learned and trained in this area, and I’ve committed to a career of helping people just like you and me navigate this complicated relationship.
I can’t wait to help you on this journey!
