Description

Multi award-winning and bestselling author Nick Nolan's No Place like Home: Coping with the Decline and Death of Toxic* Parents offers professional perspectives on the dying parent who was seldom - if ever - emotionally supportive of their child. While chronicling his violent father's decline and death from diabetes and probable Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (Concussion Syndrome), Nolan interviews three adult survivors of child abuse, as well as eight licensed clinicians specializing in family systems, women's issues and Christianity, People of Color, LGBT clients, military PTSD, child sexual abuse, and neurology. Whether the dying parent was wounding, absent, narcissistic, or toxic (or was the parent who looked the other way), No Place Like Home offers multiple standpoints on the anger, guilt, and resentment survivors of familial abuse and neglect often feel when aiding their offending parent. With contributions by Adrian Aguilera PhD; Aaron Aronow MD; Cissy Brady-Rogers LMFT; Carol Cushman LCSW; Teresa DeCrescenzo LCSW, LMFT; Lawrence J. Martin PsyD; Edward Reed EdD; and Allen Ruyle LCSW.*Wounding/Absent/Narcissistic/Toxic
