Stuck in Life and Lacking Motivation? How to Overcome Stagnation and Lack Of Vitality

Unmasking Depression: The Hidden Impact of Narcissistic Caregivers  -Therapeutic Interventions
In this episode, Dr. Anthony Mazzella delves into the concept of white depression, which involves an unconscious identification with a narcissistically preoccupied caregiver. He explores the impact of emotional resonance and affective attunement on an individual's development, as well as the connection between this type of depression and narcissism. Dr. Mazzella also discusses the therapeutic approach to addressing the lack of emotional resonance and affective attunement, and the  role this plays on  freeing oneself of feeling stuck in life and lacking motivation. 

If you are interested in a consultation or seeking virtual therapy services, Dr. Mazzella is accepting new patients. Please click here for more detailed information.
