About this listen

This episode explores healing from family trauma, cultural expectations, and the complex impact of narcissism within families. My guest for this episode of Better with Dr. Ericka is Agatha Peters, a Nigerian American psychotherapist, founder of Beautiful Sunshine Therapy, and author of Trapped in Their Script: Reclaim Your Life from Narcissistic Parents & Cultural Expectations. Agatha is deeply committed to supporting adult children of narcissistic parents, particularly those from collectivist cultures where family loyalty and cultural expectations can make healing feel complicated or even forbidden. Drawing from both her professional work and her own experience with therapy, she helps clients reclaim their identities, set healthier boundaries, and move forward without abandoning their cultural roots. Questions this episode will answer: What are the first steps someone can take to begin healing from trauma? What are EMDR and CBT, and how do they support trauma recovery? What advice can help people who are afraid to start therapy due to stigma around mental illness? How can narcissism impact a family system, and what can be done to interrupt harmful patterns? Whether you are navigating family trauma, questioning long held cultural expectations, or feeling hesitant about starting therapy, this episode offers compassionate insight and practical guidance for taking the next step toward healing.
