GUEST 

Amy Marlow-Macoy, LPC

EPISODE OVERVIEW 

Amy describes the types of wounds that narcissistic abuse causes. We talk about people-pleasing, codependency, and the fear of being selfish. Amy weighs in on whether you can heal if the abuser is a family member, and you choose to continue to have contact. She provides some exercises and a meditation for healing. Amy talks about the kinds of therapy that she believes are helpful for healing narcissistic abuse, and what to look for in a therapist.
