Healing Begins with Understanding
Online therapy in Florida & Texas for Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents
If you’ve ever felt unseen, unheard, or like the parent in your relationship with your parents—you’re not alone.
You might be asking yourself:
Why do I feel guilty for setting boundaries?
Why do I doubt myself, even when I know I’m right?
Why do my parents still affect me so much—after all these years?
Why do I feel responsible for everyone else’s emotions?
Why do I feel emotionally alone, even around people?
Growing up with emotionally immature parents often meant your needs were ignored, your emotions dismissed, and your role in the family was to keep the peace—no matter what it cost you. You have spent years second-guessing your feelings, minimizing your needs, and carrying the emotional weight of your family. The effects often follow you into adulthood, leaving deep, lasting impressions. You may now find yourself feeling anxious in relationships, unsure of your worth, overly responsible for others, or stuck in patterns that don’t make sense but feel impossible to break.
You’re not broken- these are not signs of weakness. They’re signs of surviving an environment where your emotional needs weren’t met. Therapy can help you begin to thrive and live from a place of clarity, not confusion.
I see you
You were the grown up long before you should have been.
Maybe you were the peacemaker, the fixer, the one who held it all together. You learned to read the room, silence your needs, and shrink yourself to avoid setting off emotional chaos. Now, as an adult, you might feel anxious, stuck, overly responsible—or simply exhausted from always trying to be “okay.”
I’m Erica, and I help adult children of emotionally immature parents untangle the past so they can finally feel grounded, connected, and enough. If you're ready to stop walking on eggshells—even in your own mind—you're in the right place.
