The Reluctant Therapist: Estrangement between children and parents

Estrangement between a parent and an adult child is not uncommon, but the pain, shame, guilt, and embarassment surrounding a rift in a family causes many to keep their separation a secret. What causes this kind of fissure between parents and children? Host Elizabeth Barrett speaks with psychologist and author Joshua Coleman about his work helping families reconnect.

Elizabeth Barrett is a wife, mother, licensed marriage-family therapist, educator, eavesdropper, emotion worker, and mental health consultant. She uses all of these skills to address the subjects that we all struggle with in this conversation with the Reluctant Therapist.
