From wanting to be a doctor at Johns Hopkins to falling into clinical psychology almost by accident, I walk you through my unexpected journey into this field. I reveal how working with teen girls led me to discover that mom was always at the center of their struggles - and how frustrating it was to reach that point with clients but not know what to do next. Most importantly, I explain why I've been afraid to share that I have a good relationship with my mom, my belief that this work isn't about centering my story, and how understanding attachment and intergenerational trauma became my framework for helping mothers and daughters heal, reconnect, or break cycles. With this episode you'll be able to: Understand that therapists don't need personal pain to do meaningful healing work See how clinical psychology can integrate science, people, and art into one field Recognize that all behavior makes sense when you understand the context and root causes Learn why mom is often at the center of struggles for teen girls and young women Discover how intergenerational trauma gets passed down through maternal lineages Accept that healing work can come from genuine belief in the relationship's importance, not personal wounds Know that this space welcomes all mother-daughter stories without centering my own Don't forget to check out the resources mentioned: the Boundaries Guide, 7-Day Inner Child Healing Challenge, and Break the Cycle Workbook - all designed to help you heal and reconnect!
