Parentified Children: Stepping Outside the "Responsible Child" Role

In today's episode I was joined by Georgina Garay-Lozano -  a Latina Therapist and Life Coach. We talk about the experience of being first generation Mexican American daughters of immigrants. Many first gens share the experience of being "little adults" (parentified children) from a young age. Georgina shares how as a parentified daughter, the line between what was her responsibility and that of her parents was blurred often and how difficult the journey to separate from that can be.  Get to Know Georgina: Georgina understands that early childhood impacts the way we live our lives today and holds space for healing our inner child. Working with Georgina means diving deep and sometimes exploring hurt that happened in our family in prior generations. Holding space for past hurt and resiliency helps with being more present. She is a trauma trained therapist and uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) for relief of symptoms. Georgina is also a mom and recovering parentified child who is discovering new interests. You can follow Georgina:  IG: https://www.instagram.com/georginagaraylozano/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@georgigaray Georgina Garay-Lozano, M.S.
