From the outside you saw a happy home. You saw a child receiving educational opportunities and the latest technology, fashion, and trips around the world, and having birthday parties with friends and family.

You saw pictures of vacations and holidays where everyone was smiling and appeared to be happy. You read the Christmas cards and email updates describing family vacations, accomplishments, and happy memories.

At times, I desperately wanted to believe that this picture was true. I tried to convince myself that it was, but I have learned that you can only endure pain and abuse for so long before you either give into it, surrendering yourself in the process, or fight to break free.

I reached out to my parents many times, I invited them to come and visit me, and I suggested activities that we would all enjoy together. I came home for holidays and tried to connect with them. I bought them gifts and tried to fill my old role within the family.

I hope you understand that no one comes to a decision like this lightly. For most estranged children, this is one of the hardest choices we ever had to make. A choice that we have agonized over with our friends, other therapists, and in the silence of our own minds.

We are taught that relationships with family are the most important relationships we will ever have, and we are socialized to believe that we should continue to have these relationships no matter how they impact us physically and psychologically.

Society has painted a picture of the estranged child as being the problem, the emotionally unstable one, the one who asked their parents for money so many times they bankrupted the family and had to be cut off.

Rarely do you hear the voices of the other side, the voices of the children so desperate for love, validation, and approval that they feel empty and continue to try harder and harder until they break. The children that long for their parents to take a genuine interest in their lives, without judgment, and walk alongside them in support during every phase of life.

But for some of us this picture will never be, and we can either be consumed by that longing or accept the picture that is. I know that this may seem harsh, but sometimes acceptance holds the key to a better life.

I still watched the proud parents with the graduates at convocation and longed to be one of them, and I still found myself imagining what supportive parents might have said at my convocation and my wedding, and yes it still hurts. It might always hurt.

At the same time, I am free from the hope that maybe this time they will come, maybe this time they will be proud of me, and maybe this time I will be enough. I can grieve the loss of what I had hoped for, accept what is, and move forward with my life.

I strive to live a full life. I fill my days with activities and work that bring meaning to my life and the lives of others. I trust my instincts and I am aware of how people and situations affect my well-being, and I work to reduce the negative impact of these factors whenever possible.

Have you tried many times and been rejected? Do you feel that nothing you can ever do or be will be enough? And finally, do you hear their voices inside your head and then question your ability, your instincts, and your self-worth?

If so, you may need to let go. If you do decide that this is the right choice for you, you will grow in ways you never imagined, and with that growth will come a sense of peace and self-love. You will learn to trust yourself and to care for yourself physically, psychologically, and spiritually which will lead to improved happiness and health.

Researchers have found that abused children do not stop loving their parents; they stop loving themselves. After I stopped speaking to my parents, I became more confident, I began taking risks, and I learned for the very first time to love myself and accept the journey I am on.

You might even find yourself questioning this choice years later and wonder if time could have healed this relationship. Remember why you made this choice, remember the pain, and trust that you made the right decision.

Aaron Temkin Beck was born on July 18th, 1921, in Providence, Rhode Island. He graduated from Brown University in 1942 and Yale Medical School in 1946. He then served as a fellow in psychiatry at the Austin Riggs Center in Stockbridge, MA, and later as Assistant Chief of the Department of Neuropsychiatry at the Valley Forge Army Hospital in Valley Forge, Pa., before taking up a teaching position at the University of Pennsylvania. As a young psychiatrist, Dr. Beck endorsed the dominant psychotherapeutic modality at the time, psychoanalysis, and even underwent analysis himself. He came to believe that in order for the medical community to take psychoanalysis seriously, it must be validated by research. He subsequently began conducting research into the psychoanalytic construct of depression.

The results of the first major clinical trial comparing CBT to antidepressant medication were published in 1977, showing CBT to be the first talk therapy to be as effective as medication for the treatment of depression and twice as effective in preventing relapse. After a second clinical trial in the UK replicated the results, Cognitive Behavior Therapy received international recognition and interest. Since then, over 2,000 studies have found CBT to be an effective treatment for many mental health challenges and medical problems with psychological components.

Dr. Aaron T. Beck began to research and apply CBT to other disorders, making clinical observations, identifying maladaptive beliefs associated with the disorders, and developing treatment plans to target them. He developed instruments including the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), and Beck Hopelessness Scale (BHS) to measure symptoms of psychopathology and evaluate the efficacy of treatment. CBT has been successfully applied to anxiety disorders, substance use, personality disorders, eating disorders, psychosis, and other psychiatric diagnoses. In addition, it has been adapted for use with couples, families, children, adolescents, adults, and older adults in a variety of settings, including hospitals, outpatient clinics, residential placements, schools, and prisons. Researchers have since found that patients with medical conditions can benefit from CBT, both in terms of symptom reduction and the promotion of healthy behaviors.

In the 1990s, interest in CBT was growing around the world. However, despite its demonstrated efficacy for a wide range of problems, Dr. Aaron T. Beck recognized that there were not enough well-trained cognitive therapists to meet the growing need. In 1994, Dr. Beck co-founded the Beck Institute for Cognitive Behavior Therapy with his daughter, Dr. Judith S. Beck, focusing on training, research, resources, and clinical care in CBT. The nonprofit Beck Institute has trained over 28,000 health and mental health professionals in 130 countries, including clinicians, students, educators, and researchers.

Dr. Aaron T. Beck will be remembered as a cherished mentor, a prolific reader, and a lifelong learner who was intently curious about a variety of subjects from the range of natural and social sciences to law, politics, sports, and pop culture. Dr. Beck was fervently interested in the lives of his family and friends, and he kept in regular touch with hundreds of former colleagues, offering ongoing mentorship and friendship. As he aged, he focused not on what he had lost, but on what he still had and what he could still do. His positive attitude was an inspiration to all who met him.

Dr. Aaron T. Beck studied evidence-based psychological therapy right up until his passing on November 1, 2021, at the age of 100. He remained an Emeritus Professor at the University of Pennsylvania and President Emeritus of the Beck Institute until his death. He leaves behind his wife of 71 years, the Honorable Phyllis W. Beck (ret.), four children, Roy, Judith, Daniel, and Alice, ten grandchildren, and ten great-grandchildren. He is dearly missed by many.
