In today's #coffeewithatherapist, we are talking about specific examples of healthy boundaries we may set with our family members.
We will cover:
1. Boundaries around communication, travel, and spending time together
2. Boundaries around non-triangulation and keeping secrets secret
3. Boundaries around listening well and setting up times to connect/communicate
4. Boundaries around toxic conversations, judgment/criticism, and uncomfortable topics
4. Grief and loss when family members aren't emotionally safe and don't respect our boundaries
**Remember, it's important to have an equitable consequence for each boundary that we set. Without a consequence, a boundary is just a threat.**
What boundaries have been helpful for you and your family members?
