What you’ll hear in this episode:
The definition of Childhood Emotional Neglect: a parent’s failure to respond enough to the child’s emotional needs
This is different from physical neglect and abuse.
In her private practice, Dr. Webb kept seeing clients with the same patterns.
She has identified 12 different types of parenting styles that lead to Childhood Emotional Neglect.
Children who experience may grow into parents with the same communication patternsif CEN isn't identified and addressed.
Dr. Webb has developed a questionnaire, designed for adults, to determine if you’ve been affected by this CEN.
Her book gives case examples of parent-child dynamics leading to CEN.
She explains how to overcome CEN.
Dr. Webb wants to put together CEU trainings for therapists who want to work with this specialty, but first, she wants to complete a research project to compile results.
She has a special offer for therapists working with clients who struggle due to Childhood Emotional Neglect. Listen in to hear it!
