MURDEROUS MOTHERS

The book examines the destructive impact of maternal patterns on the adult psyche. Separate chapters are devoted to the typologies of toxic mothers—schizophrenogenic, narcissistic, overprotective, castrating, and emotionally absent. It examines types of violence (physical, psychological, sexual, economic, educational, and medical), the mechanisms of maternal blackmail, the consequences of abortion for subsequent children, separation distortions, the inheritance of psychological trauma across generations, and the impact of maternal behavior on a child's sexual identity and subsequent relationships.
A collaboration with Dmitry Korshevnyuk, a medical doctor, psychotherapist, and psychophysiologist. This book draws on the clinical practice of both authors and is intended for both psychotherapy and psychology professionals, as well as readers working through their own childhood traumas or those who have encountered toxic maternal behavior in their families. It focuses on specific cases and the mechanisms through which unresolved traumas are passed on to the next generation.
