In this podcast, Marriage and Family Therapist Todd Creager discusses the effects of dysfunctional families where a young child had to take care of their mommy (or daddy or both), rather than the other way around.
When this happens in childhood, you believe your role is to make other people happy and when you carry that into adulthood you end up focusing on the happiness of others rather than your personal happiness.
He shares that it is possible to heal from the effects of dysfunctional families by literally changing our brain through healthy relationships, good therapy, and challenging old ways of thinking.
Todd specializes in helping couples heal from toxic relationships, infidelity, identify why the cheating happened, reconnect with their partner, rekindle passion and intimacy, and many other relationships topics.
