The main point that emotional struggles can result in physical pain or diseases I agree, but the argumentation seems a bit too thin.
Yes, you don't need to forgive your parents, but I'm not convinced that if your blind that you wanted to close your eyes from the truth.
But I guess it's the entryway into the topic, but I will definitely read a more scientific approach next. I like a lot of other books of Alice Miller, but same there you have to keep in mind when it's written and take the argumentation with a grain of salt.
The content warnings I gave are based on that these topics are discussed, I personally didn't felt triggered, but keep in mind that they will come up.
