From Therapist + Coach, Torie Wiksell
A Podcast for Adult Children of Parents Who Have Borderline and Narcissistic Personality Disorders
The honest advice you’ve been seeking.
A podcast all about setting boundaries with parents and healing from toxic relationships
Guidance
Learn about the many complicated layers found in relationships with a parent who has borderline or narcissistic personality disorder + what you can do to protect yourself, so you can finally begin to heal. Get helpful tips from a therapist/coach who specializes in helping adults navigate this dynamic.
Encouragement
Accepting your parent for who they are, grieving the person they aren’t, setting healthy boundaries, dealing with the judgement from people who will never understand is HARD. You are also so much more capable of doing hard things then you give yourself credit for. I believe in you and your ability to break toxic patterns.
Validation
You’re not crazy, but when you have a parent with a personality disorder it almost certainly feels like you are at times. Most people don’t understand the need to protect yourself from a parent, but most people don’t have a parent with a personality disorder. You’re absolutely not crazy. I promise.

Someone who finally GETS IT!!! Torie gets it. I finally feel seen/heard/validated and then appropriately guided going through life with a parent who can frequently be quite a struggle to deal with. I’m SO excited to learn more from her as she continues to creat episodes. 🫶🏻

Real talk on family drama. Torie’s podcast is must-listen for anyone dealing with tricky family dynamics. Torie brings a relatable and down-to-earth perspective, borne from her personal experience growing up with a mother struggling with unmanaged BPD. Her insights make navigating complicated relationships feel a bit more manageable, and her empathy shines through in every episode.
