Sometimes, Maintaining a Relationship With A Family Member Isn't Always Best ↓

Reader,

My most recent video talked about a pretty sensitive topic - that sometimes it's okay to end a relationship with a parent or family member.

While this can be a healthy and necessary step for some, it should never be taken lightly.

Family relationships can be complicated, and while it's not appropriate for many (most), there are some individuals who need to end a familial relationship for their own mental health, safety, and general well-being.

It's never an easy thing to do, and should only be considered after all other options are exhausted and after you've processed this topic and possibility thoroughly in (a lot) of therapy.

Taking this step can be an amazing and healing step that reconnects you with your inner child and allows the adult version of you to tend to the needs that your younger version of yourself didn't receive.

Need to talk about whether you should end a relationship with a family member? Reach out and let's talk about it.

No Bullshit from Dr. Adam March 1st Your Therapist Should NEVER Approach You First in The Wild ↓ Hi Reader, There are a lot (and I mean a lot) of unethical therapists out there. In this weeks video, I talked about one of the most common ways therapists are unethical. Take a look here. Therapists are professional secret keepers. That includes that you're in therapy! If your therapist ever approaches you in the wild (aka outside of the therapy office) without your consent, they just violated...

No Bullshit from Dr. Adam February 14th Relationships Won't Always Be 50/50, And Here's Why ↓ Reader, Yesterday I posted a video about relationships that feel unbalanced. I am talking about how much effort you or your partner is putting in. Here's the thing...in the short term, we can't expect 50/50 effort. Some days you will put in 70% because your partner can only put in 30%. Other days it will be reversed. What is important, though, is that you believe that the 30% your partner is putting...
