This online training course will help put words to issues you’ve only had a gut awareness of so you can finally make sense of why you have always felt that “something isn’t quite right, but I can’t figure it out.”

In this training, you’ll discover…

• Why unacknowledged feelings, thoughts or a ‘voice’ growing up has left you feeling empty, leading to a huge loss of sense of self… and how to get that back.
• How to identify the insidiousness of CEN and understand how it has affected your adult life and relationships.
• How your parents failed to emotionally validate you as a child (in a way that is free from blame).
• How to take the blame and the weight of guilt off for being “flawed” and give you answers.
• The vocabulary you need to talk about what didn’t happen for you as a child, so you can heal.

In this training, I cover Childhood Emotional Neglect in far more depth than my book Running on Empty.

How does it happen? Why is it so invisible and unmemorable? How does it affect your adult life? I will also discuss the 5 stages of healing CEN and outline the best resources available to guide and support your recovery.

Now you can truly stop your lifelong search of “what’s wrong with me?”, even if you have read book after book or been in therapy for 10+ years trying to figure yourself out.

This 5-week program will help you fast-track your ability to get in touch with your feelings when you are with your partner, ask for “what you want” and express your feelings without fear.

I will cover the exact process that I’ve used successfully with thousands of therapy clients to heal emotional neglect within their relationships.

You will build emotional intimacy with your partner and communicate on a feeling level in a way that doesn’t make your partner feel blamed or make you feel selfish or demanding.

With this approach you can stop the cycle of resentment that builds, putting further distance between you, making you feel all alone in your relationship.

This is your chance to look over my shoulder as I give you the EXACT same 5-step process I’ve used for my private therapy clients.

Ultimately, you may feel like I’m a fly on the wall observing your life and putting it into words for you. You will also feel hope and the encouragement you need to learn the emotional skills needed for a healthy relationship.

This 5-week program will help you fast-track your ability to speak up for yourself and express your feelings, wants, and needs without fear.

I will cover the exact process that I’ve used successfully with thousands of therapy clients to find their voice and speak their truth.

You will discover why it's been so hard to find your voice and how Childhood Emotional Neglect contributes to not knowing what your feelings, wants and needs are. 

With this approach, you will finally believe that your thoughts, feelings and needs matter AND that you are allowed to have them.

Then I'll walk you through how to actually find the words to describe how you are feeling, both to yourself and to others. My Word Choice Guide will help you avoid trigger words and pick the right words, even if you struggle to articulate just what you are feeling. 

You will discover how to use the 5 most compelling Emotion Skills to express your emotions in a healthy, well-timed way even if you struggle to actually speak up for yourself because your throat closes up or you tend to hold things in and then over-express or blow up trying to get your message across. 

Finally, we will cover how to deal with the negative reactions of the other person after you've spoken your truth and expressed your feelings wants or needs. Including what to say when they say things like: "No need to get all emotional about it" or "Why are you so stuck in the past?" or "It's not that big a deal". 

With this approach, you can finally give yourself permission to be you. To have your own opinions, wants and desires and feel heard, understood and valued for who you are.
