Tell him its not about him.
Don't take a single thing personally.
Seriously, let her go wingy...meanwhile remain stable...as an observer
Its a test and he's failing.
She needs to know where the boundaries are and will be unsettled until she finds them, and when she does she will keep testing them to make sure that they are there.

Meanwhile he should be focusing on taking care of himself and preserving his own boundaries.
