GUEST
Amy Marlow-Macoy, LPC
EPISODE OVERVIEW
Amy describes the types of wounds that narcissistic abuse causes. We talk about people pleasing, codependency, and the fear of being selfish. Amy weighs in on whether you can heal if the abuser is a family member, and you choose to continue to have contact. She provides some exercises, and a meditation for healing. Amy talks about the kinds of therapy that she believes are helpful for healing narcissistic abuse, and what to look for in a therapist.
MEDITATION
The meditation is about 30 minutes into the episode (24-25 minutes in after the interview starts)
