About the Course

We all learn ways of thinking, attitudes and habits in early childhood by being immersed in the atmosphere of the family. Parents often have few tools to teach their children and little knowledge of how to provide a good example. Family dysfunction runs through succeeding generations like a snowball rolling down a hill, gathering speed and power as it goes. Growing up and learning to be responsible for oneself is like standing at the bottom of that hill, and not letting the dysfunction be passed on any further. It Ends With You will show you how to help your clients do just that.

To help who grew up with a lack of guidance, tools and self-confidence, Dr. Tessina has written “It Ends With You” – a guide to replacing missing information from the formative years. In this book, you will learn to understand what a functional family is, how adults are still affected by early experience, and how to help your clients develop the skills necessary for successful living and loving, committed relationships. 

This course is based on the book, It Ends With You: Grow Up and Out of Dysfunction created by Tessina, Tina B., Ph.D.
