Reparenting – Alchemizing Healing in the Parent-Child Bond

Briar Culbert

Key Takeaways:

  • Reparenting involves recognizing unmet childhood needs and using the adult self to nurture and heal those parts.
  • Parenting triggers unresolved experiences, providing opportunities for growth rather than suppression.
  • The inner child consists of both lived memories and an innate, ongoing part of curiosity and wonder.
  • The adult self is the most experienced and well-resourced version of oneself but may carry developmental gaps from childhood.
  • Emotional, physical, and social needs may have been unmet, influencing parenting reactions and struggles.
  • Recognizing disproportionate emotional reactions can signal past wounds seeking attention.
  • Small, actionable reparenting steps include self-validation, play, and meeting personal needs.
  • Big emotions in children, such as tantrums, can trigger discomfort if a parent’s emotions were historically dismissed.
  • The goal is not to suppress a child’s emotions but to guide them safely while maintaining self-regulation.
  • Practicing self-awareness, acknowledging grief for unmet needs, and fostering self-compassion support both parent and child.
  • Reparenting and parenting are interconnected processes that contribute to emotional healing and healthier family dynamics.
