When Criticism Hurts: Understanding Expressed Emotion

from The Brain Coach Hosted by Mary Turos

Mary Turos breaks down expressed emotion—the family patterns of criticism, hostility, and over-involvement—and how they affect relapse and everyday functioning across mental health issues. She shares practical, research-based approaches for critics (emotion coaching and psychoeducation) and for people who are criticized (reframing, keeping a record of successes, low-reactivity responses, and creating safe spaces or boundaries).
