When the Princess Dies...: A Fairy Tale for Women with Practical Tools for Transforming and Healing the Father-Daughter Relationship - Paperback

by Bobbie Berg (Author)

In order for transformation to take place, some things must die. So it is for the woman ... The Princess Frog ... who suffers the effects of the wounding she endured by her father while growing up. What needs to die? The daughter must let go of her illusions, weaknesses, and dysfunctional roles if she is ever to become a vibrant, authentic, whole person. Fighting for transformation takes courage. It is heroic. To that end, Dr. Berg provides the reader with practical information, guidelines, and exercises. A step-by-step "psychological map" in the form of a fairy tale addresses the issue of the father who abandons his Good Father role; brings to light the effect his behavior consequently has on his daughter as well as on her relationships with men and others; and proposes the journey she might take in order to heal and find her way out of the darkness.
