  • More Than Their Final Act: Holding Space After Murder-Suicide Loss

    More Than Their Final Act: Holding Space After Murder-Suicide Loss
    Sep 3 2025
    In this episode of Mental Health News Radio, host Kristin speaks with the co-hosts of the Unspoken Grief podcast and core members of the nonprofit Impacted Survivors of Murder-Suicide: Michael Vinton, Kristina Faulkner, and Tina Chevalier. Each of these advocates is also a survivor. Through deeply personal stories of loss, they illuminate what it means to live with—and speak from—the aftermath of murder-suicide. Together, they discuss the realities of grief shaped by stigma, media distortion, and silence, and how their work offers a space where no one is made to feel responsible and no one has to grieve alone. Topics include:
    • How peer-led grief work meets needs that clinical spaces can miss
    • Navigating shame, survivor guilt, and the unanswered “why”
    • Media boundaries and narrative reclamation
    • The fire of advocacy as part of post-traumatic meaning-making
    • Building bridges for others while still healing yourself
    This is a compassionate, trauma-informed, and clinically valuable conversation for survivors, therapists, and anyone walking alongside someone who has experienced complex grief. Learn more at www.impactedsurvivors.org.

  • Breaking Free from the Narcissistic Mother: Sons, Boundaries, and Healing

    Breaking Free from the Narcissistic Mother: Sons, Boundaries, and Healing
    Aug 20 2025
    What happens when a mother sees her son not as an individual, but as an extension of herself? In this powerful episode, we dive into the hidden dynamics between narcissistic mothers and their sons—and how this enmeshment can shape identity, independence, and relationships for decades.

    Author and psychotherapist Christine Louis de Cannonville joins us to explore the making of a so-called “mama’s boy,” the long shadow of emotional manipulation, and the pathways to freedom. From enmeshment and silenced voices to the liberating act of reclaiming one’s power, this conversation is both a mirror and a map.

    You’ll hear stories of sons who struggled under the weight of their mother’s control, the painful impact on their partners and families, and a breakthrough moment on the beach where a blocked voice finally found release. Christine shares how spiritual and therapeutic practices—like shamanic journeying and boundary work—can help survivors reconnect with their essence, reclaim their voice, and step into authentic adulthood.

    This episode isn’t about blaming mothers. It’s about recognizing the patterns, breaking the cycle, and moving forward with compassion, clarity, and self-love.

    Christine Louis de Cannonville is a psychotherapist, author, and educator specializing in the treatment of narcissistic abuse. Known for her compassionate yet direct approach, she has written extensively on the dark triad, shame, and recovery from narcissistic relationships. Christine blends trauma-informed therapy with spiritual and shamanic practices to help clients reclaim their voice and their power. Her work has supported countless survivors worldwide in moving from trauma to transformation.
