Description

Description:

This presentation will focus on key emotional challenges in the mother-daughter relationship and identify the forces that block mutual empathy and connection. We will hear the complaints that adolescent girls voice against their mothers, and explore how therapists can help adult daughters transcend distance and blame.

Educational Objectives:

  1. To list the major complaints that adolescent girls voice about their mothers
  2. To define the concept of "independence" as it applies to the mother-daughter relationship.
