Gabor Maté: Hello Again, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

For anyone who has ever thought, 'I love them - so why is this so hard?'

From the New York Times bestselling authors of The Myth of Normal, a path forward for both parents and adult children locked in a difficult relationship.

What happens when the people who shaped you, or the ones you shaped, are the very ones you can't seem to reach - or can't bear to be close to anymore?

In *Hello Again,*clinician and trauma expert Dr Gabor Maté joins his son Daniel Maté to illuminate the uniquely charged bond between parents and their adult children - a relationship defined by love, history and an imbalance of power that never fully disappears.

Drawing on decades of clinical insight, hard-won personal experience and their widely attended workshops, the Matés show why this 'set menu, no substitutions' relationship so often becomes the site of recurring misunderstandings, resentment, withdrawal or explosive conflict - even when both sides genuinely want things to be better.

This book doesn't promise a tidy reconciliation or a 'happy ending.' Instead, it offers something more realistic and more hopeful: a fresh start - whether that means rebuilding closeness, establishing steadier boundaries or finding peace at a distance.

Inside you'll find:

• A clear map of why the parent / adult-child bond is uniquely triggering - and why it's also uniquely repairable
• Parent and adult-child 'prototype' patterns that reveal what's really happening beneath the argument
• Practical tools to pause, self-regulate and communicate without collapsing into old roles
• Boundary guidance that protects dignity without hardening into punishment
• A realistic approach to accountability, grief and forgiveness - without self-erasure
• Paths forward that honour safety, including less contact when that is the healthiest choice

Hello Again is a wise and steady companion toward clearer seeing, truer connection and lasting change.
