When parent-adult child relationships get stuck in old power patterns

My adult daughter keeps asking me for advice about her relationship but then gets angry when I give it, and I keep giving it even though I can see it's damaging something between us. We're both trying to figure out how to love each other now that she's grown but we keep falling back into old patterns where I feel responsible for fixing her life and she feels like I don't trust her to live it.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Both people want to evolve their relationship but keep defaulting to familiar roles that no longer serve them, unable to navigate the transition from hierarchical care to mutual respect.
