Because adult children of emotionally immature, self-absorbed parents tend to cope by over-compensating, and over-functioning, they may seem like they can handle anything. They tend to be self-reflective and self-aware, but their development has suffered from the premature expectation that they put other people’s needs first. In therapy, it’s easy to focus on their strengths, missing the profound loneliness and the low self-confidence lurking under the surface of their high-functioning presentation. In this workshop, you’ll learn to help adult children of emotionally immature parents process their dysregulated emotions and connect with a stronger sense of self, thereby restoring stress tolerance, capacity for deeper relationships, and feelings of entitlement to a meaningful life. You’ll also learn to help these clients:

What is Emotional Maturity?
Effects on Adult Children who become therapy clients

Lindsay C. Gibson, PsyD, is The New York Times and Amazon #1 best selling author of Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents: How to Heal from Distant, Rejecting, or Self-Involved Parents (New Harbinger, 2015). Her groundbreaking work has sold over 100,000 copies, been translated into 37 languages, and empowered thousands to break free from toxic legacies and reclaim their lives.
With over 30 years of experience as a psychotherapist and psychdiagnostician, Dr. Gibson identified that many clients’ anxiety, obsessions, and depression stemmed from distorted beliefs and emotional coercion imposed by emotionally immature parents. She observed that while these parents might not fall into severe mental health categories, their emotional immaturity had profoundly damaging effects on their children.
Dr. Gibson currently works as a clinical psychologist in private practice. Her follow-up book, Recovering from Emotionally Immature Parents: Practical Tools to Establish Boundaries and Reclaim Your Emotional Autonomy (New Harbinger, 2019), offers practical strategies for overcoming these challenges and fostering emotional resilience.
