Connect with Melissa Guttman
You went no contact with your narcissistic parent. It was a difficult and painful decision, but one that was necessary to make. You feel safer being out of a toxic relationship, but you miss being part of a family unit. Now you're dealing with loneliness and even more conflict. Other relatives are guilting you for going no contact. You're not sure where to spend the holidays or who you can trust to have your back. It's becoming clear that you need to build community outside of your family system. You feel a mixture of anger and hope, grief and relief, fear and peace. You want a guide to help you navigate this complicated transition.
I specialize in narcissistic abuse recovery and family estrangement. IFS therapy can help you reconnect to your intuition after gaslighting. Music therapy can help you find your voice and tell your story through singing and songwriting. We focus on setting boundaries with your family to prevent manipulation, and building an alternative loving support system.
I know how lonely it is to forge on this path alone, but I am here to tell you that you are a badass. You are worthy of creating a chosen family of friends and a second childhood with more play and rest. It is time to step into your fullest power and become your own best parent. You deserve to have a therapist who understands. Please reach out for a consult!
