Healing the Adult Children of Narcissists

One of the best and most needed books for adult children who grew up next to narcissistic parents. From the author of the bestselling book Toxic People and a leading expert on emotional abuse recovery.

Growing up with a narcissistic parent is mentally devastating.

The author touches on a wide range of issues, from the problems that daughters of narcissistic fathers face to how adverse childhood experiences affect our brains. It offers the necessary tools, skill set and healing for adult children of narcissistic parents who have been abused throughout their lives, helping them break the cycle once and for all for future generations.
