TalkingParents Partners with Amber Andrews to Talk Narcissism & Post Separation Abuse

Amber Andrews, Talking.Solutions, will take over TalkingParents’ Instagram account Monday, April 22nd through Friday, April 26th. @talkingparentsapp and @talking.solutions are partnering to provide followers with invaluable information and advice surrounding the following topics:

1. Understanding narcissism and post separation abuse.
2. The benefits of using TalkingParents when co-parenting with a narcissist/high conflict co-parent.
3. What boundaries are and how to set them in shared parenting. 
4. Communication strategies when co-parenting with a narcissist/HCCP.
5. Supporting your children through these situations and how to practice self-care as a protective parent.

“Many survivors of narcissistic co-parenting share eerily similar stories, often describing their co-parent's behaviors as 'textbook.' This uniformity arises because narcissists commonly use the same manipulative tactics. Once you recognize the patterns, you can't unsee them. Educating yourself empowers you to understand what's happening and prepares you to respond effectively.”

-Amber Andrews, Talking.Solutions
