My second video collaboration with Rick Belden. Rick and I talk about “The Mother Wound” and how this form of attachment trauma dysfunctionally impacts adult personal and relational development. The unresolved psychological problems of the SLD (codependent) or narcissist mother significantly harms the emotional and social development of her children, who bring that harm/trauma forward into their adult lives. My Human Magnet Syndrome book addresses the impact on a person’s mother trauma on their choices for romantic partners and friends.
Rick is a highly talented coach specializing in adult problems caused by childhood trauma. Visit him at to schedule a session with him.

A there a rise in the numbers in of people suffering from codependency and narcissistic parents? Are many narcissists from the baby boomer generation?
Jea not being protected. I have once asked a question to one of my parants: very very angry-ness was the replay
So that was a nailed one.
I let it there, just do not see or involve anymore.
I can't thank you both enough.
You both help me realize I'm must be getting better.
At 56 years old i had know idea what i did 12 years ago but i basically walked away from my mother and her abuse …she did what all narcissist do and she bad mouth me to all her friends and family ….i recently though circumstances and the poor health of my father i got back involved with them only to find out what she had done and even dragged my dad into …its turned into a big joke as she really cant harm me anymore …she has dementia which i believe is a false diagnosis shes just an aging narcissist..even more physically emotionally and mentally abusive as she always was …my first slim recollection of abuse was age 3 ….but ive lost most of my childhood memories…i have just started researching things and can now put names to th hings like no contact gaslighting etc . its amazing
Has anybody had EDMR. I keep reading about it but I don't know what it is and how it differs from normal therapy.
I definitely have identified within me both the Mother wound and also the Father wound for different reasons. To put it all on one parent only partly heals the inner rifts in my experience.
my mother didn't want me, or my sister… who died from neglect… or the two brothers she let my stepfather take.. I was passed around, and she sold me once.. I can't get any help with any of the issues I have because of childhood sexual abuse, being locked up, beaten, raped… you have no idea. She liked my older brother, but not me or any of the others.. she had 2 abortions before this all started.. she hurt me a lot, my brother hurt me a lot, my stepfather also hurt me… God, I have spent almost my whole paycheck on therapy that never helped… still haven't worked thru any of this and the kidnapping at 13 that got me pregnant. I would not let them take him from me when he was born.
The poetry was beautifully written. He spoke on a lot of things that I had went through and still it's going through with my mother, listening to Mr.Rosenberg have really taught me a lot. I have distance myself from the abuse!
Good stuff! Thankeeeee!!!!
