The Parent You've Been Waiting For
Are you still secretly hoping your parent will finally show up the way you always needed?
Every call. Every visit. Every holiday. Still getting derailed. Still hoping. Still exhausted, angry, and resentful.
A workshop for adult children exhausted by their relationship with their parents.
Only 26 spots remaining.
Workshop is August 8th — 4 days away.
Maybe you keep giving them chances. Maybe you tell yourself you have no expectations anymore — but somehow, every call, every visit, every holiday still leaves you feeling hooked by their antics all over again.
You're not imagining it. And you're not alone in it.
This workshop is for adult children who are burnt out, resentful, and exhausted by their relationship with their parents — whether you're still struggling to admit your parent might not be who you need them to be, you already know but feel riddled with guilt, or you've just stopped trying because the conflict never feels worth it.
Here is what’s going to happen in those 2 hours:
You're going to finally name what was missing — not with blame or bitterness, but with honesty and acceptance.
You're going to do the harder, braver work of grieving the parent you always wished for — so you can stop measuring your real parent against someone they were never going to be.
And you're going to leave with real clarity on what kind of relationship you actually want — and what you're going to do about it.
What you'll walk away with:
The ability to finally acknowledge what was missing, without guilt. A path to begin grieving the parent you needed. Clear eyes to decide what relationship works for you — practical only, tapered, no contact, or something in between. And the relief of no longer setting yourself on fire to keep someone else warm.
What's included:
A live 2 hour workshop on Zoom with guided exercises, including a guided imagery experience and a symbolic release practice. Access to the replay for 48-72 hours if you can't make it live.
Investment: $127
Spots: Limited to 30 participants
Frequently Asked Questions
-
No — this is a psychoeducational and experiential workshop, not individual therapy. It does not create a therapist-client relationship. If you're looking for ongoing one on one support, I'd love to connect with you about that separately.
-
The workshop will be recorded and you'll have access to the replay for 48-72 hours after the live session. That said, showing up live is where the magic happens — you'll get the most out of it in real time.
-
No — this workshop is open to anyone who resonates with the content. That said, if heavy emotions come up during or after, having a therapist to process with is always a good idea.
-
It's for anyone navigating a complicated relationship with their parents — whether that's estrangement, low contact, or still very much in the thick of it. You don't need to have made any decisions about your relationship to attend.
-
Absolutely not. This workshop is not about telling you what to do. It's about helping you see clearly enough to decide for yourself — whether that's more contact, less contact, or something in between.
-
You'll leave with the ability to finally acknowledge what was missing without guilt, a path to begin grieving the parent you wished for, and clear eyes to decide what kind of relationship actually works for you.

Absolutely — just email me at info@everydaybraverycounseling.com and I'll get back to you personally.
Two hours won't solve everything. But they'll give you something you've probably never had before — a clear, honest look at the parent you've been waiting for, and a real path forward.
This is where you stop waiting. And start moving
