Asking Eric: Exploring therapy or open communication to improve strained family relationships

Jan 17, 2025

Dear Eric: I’ve always had a close relationship with my mom and, for much of my adult life, I didn’t really have a life of my own away from her. In the last few years, I entered into my first serious relationship. We moved in together and had an on-again-off-again thing for a while and are now living separately.
