168. Triangulation in Family Relationships, with Special Guest, Dr. Jennifer Finlayson-Fife

Pivot Parenting: Expert Tips for Navigating Teen and Tween Challenges - En podcast af Heather Frazier - Tirsdage

Guesting on Pivot Parenting for a fourth visit, Jennifer Finlayson-fife and I discuss triangulation in families. What is this, how it plays out, its relationship to codependency, and the role that our parental anxiety plays in all of it.  There are 3 typical roles in triangulation: victim, perpetrator and rescuer. We can play all three roles in parenting and none of them are good for us or our teens.  Listen in as Jennifer describes how we.. "can allow our problem to teach us." She breaks down what triangulation looks like so that we can identify if and how we are participating in an unhealthy dynamic and what to do if we are.  To learn more about parenting your teen, please visit me at heatherfrazier.com   About my guest:  Dr. Jennifer Finlayson-Fife is an LDS relationship and sexuality coach with a Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology.
