Ask Dr. Julie Hanks

How can I set boundaries with my mentally ill mother?


Listen Later

In this episode, I coach Jane and address the question “How can I set boundaries with my mentally ill mother?” Jane has struggled interacting with her mother and feeling manipulated throughout her life and is seeing the cost of that pattern.

Jane wants to set boundaries with her mother and is feeling a lot of pressure in the relationship. We dive into what would happen if Jane stopped answering her mothers demands and the concern her mother will spiral if Jane sets boundaries. I share that she can not be everything to her mother and that she gets to decide what her interaction with her mother looks like.
