When Your Child Takes Their Side: A Support & Coaching Group for Protective Parents

You were the safe parent. The one who stayed. Who protected. Who absorbed the emotional chaos so your child could have some semblance of peace.

And now? They’ve turned on you.

If your adult child has aligned with the narcissistic parent—the one who manipulated, gaslit, and distorted the truth—you’re not alone. The heartbreak of this betrayal is unlike any other. It’s disorienting. Confusing. And it hurts in a place deeper than words.

This group is for you.

💬 About the Group:

This small, confidential Zoom coaching group is designed specifically for parents navigating the grief, confusion, and isolation that comes when a child—often an adult—takes the narcissist’s side.

Whether you’re newly separated, still living in the same home, or years into your healing journey, this space offers validation, guidance, and a path forward.

  • Holding space for hope while accepting what is

  • When—and how—to leave the door open without losing your boundaries
