Main Themes: Seven types of toxic family structures; five mothers who can't love; and eight stages of psychosocial development.

In this reflection I talk about finally being ready to do trauma healing work. To assist in this process, I will be using two frameworks: 1) Erik Erikson's Lifespan Development and 2) seven types of toxic family systems. There will be a part 2 to this reflection.

In this reflection I talk about visiting family for the holidays (after taking a 12 hour road trip to get here).
