Out of the Mirror: A Workbook of Healing for Adult Children of Covert Narcissists

This is a workbook designed to help adult children of covertly narcissistic parents understand their family dynamics, how growing up in a narcissistic system has influenced their present lives, and finally how to heal and move on. This is not a book about understanding the narcissistic parent, that focus just continues the dysfunctional behavior learned in early childhood. This workbook is designed to help those who find themselves stuck in a loop of people pleasing, and codependency finally come out of the mirror and into their own wonderful true selves. There is little understanding of narcissism and even less around the subject of children who are raised in narcissistic families. Much research has gone into this project, but the field is still new and many clinicians still dismiss it as a diagnosis. However, for those who have problems of codependency but neither parent was an alcoholic or drug addict, finding qualified help can be quite difficult. Many therapists don't know that there even is such a thing as covert narcissism! Take your time with the workbook, join with some friends or even start a small group. This would also be a wonderful resource for therapists to use with their clients.
