Problem:
Therapeutic Interventions Title for: Robin, a 58-year-old female, came to therapy in a very distressed mood, reporting, "I believe I have anger issues." Robin stated that this past week she and her two daughters and son got together at her house to watch the Super Bowl game. She said that during the halftime show her husband dismissed himself because he did not want to watch it. Robin stated that her daughter, the oldest one, began attacking her and Robin's husband, who is also the father of this daughter, for not wanting to watch the halftime show with them. Robin reported, "My daughter is constantly dismissing my boundaries." Robin shared that prior to this family gathering, she had spoken with her children, letting them know that their father will not be watching the halftime show and that he may dismiss himself at that time. Robin also stated that she asked her children to please not give their dad a hard time about it nor make comments about it because this will upset him very much. Robin also shared that she feels her oldest daughter uses her for babysitting, and her son, who is almost thirty, is still living with her and her husband, and she wishes he'd move out. Robin stated that she and her husband grew up with a lot of financial limitations and parents that were not very emotionally available, and this is why she and her husband have overextended themselves to help them with everything they can.
