A survivor of narcissistic abuse myself, I offer a compassionate, empathetic approach to counseling.
Narcissistic abuse often leaves you feeling anxious, depressed, and panicky. Are you unsure how to move forward after a toxic relationship? Did you grow up with a narcissistic mother or father? The effects of narcissistic abuse can lead to long term effects of isolation, panic attacks, self-blame, or loss of identity. But you are ready to make a change. If you have been struggling to set healthy boundaries, resolve conflict, and maintain a sense of self, then this is the place for you. If you have been struggling to survive in your relationships because of betrayal, broken trust, and resentment, I can help!

I specialize in Trauma /PTSD, Relationship issues, Narcissistic Personality, Anxiety, and Divorce recovery.
Do you wake up each morning feeling excited and enthusiastic about the day ahead? Or do you find yourself feeling depressed, uninspired, anxious or just unfulfilled? Are you suffering from long-term Narcissistic abuse? Our life experiences influence us, and some of these lead to inaccurate, limited beliefs about ourselves. Once you learn to identify and understand these beliefs, life changes. The path to happiness and wholeness involves knowing your true self, transcending your perspective, and embracing your highest potential and purpose. When you change your mind, you change your state of being.

We will work collaboratively to identify/utilize effective skills to break through the barriers in order to bring about lasting change.

We've all had emotional moments, but sometimes, it feels as if they are running everything. Like you have to do what they say, or how you feel in the moment, even if you feel guilty and hate yourself afterwards.

Narcissistic Personality (NPD) Therapists

What type of therapy is best for narcissistic personality disorder?

Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) is best treated with talk therapy, which could involve cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, schema therapy, gestalt therapy, or similar approaches. A therapist will help a patient uncover the feelings that may drive their behavior and discover how to engage with themselves and those around them with greater empathy and understanding, fewer demands, and less defensiveness, with the goal of developing a more authentic sense of self that enables healthier relationships.

How do therapists treat NPD?

By developing a strong therapeutic relationship, and continually focusing patients on relationships, community, and connection, a therapist, through talk therapy, may be able to help someone with NPD change. In sessions, a therapist will help an individual achieve relief from their current stressors, including the treatment of co-occurring conditions such as anxiety or depression. A therapist may also help an individual to recognize unhealthy coping mechanisms, learn new ways of interacting with others, and eventually become able to feel and display empathy.

Can a narcissist be cured with therapy?

Therapy can be effective. After a serious setback or great loss, someone with NPD may be forced to recognize that they are not immune to life’s challenges. That can spur feelings of melancholy and depression that lead them to seek professional help. Once an individual decides to seek help, they have already taken a step that the majority of those with NPD never will. Still, people with NPD often quit therapy as they naturally resist feeling vulnerable, being challenged, or admitting to flaws.

How can you get narcissistic personality disorder treatment for someone?

It is notoriously difficult to convince someone with NPD to seek help. With their feelings of superiority, they may be unlikely to recognize or acknowledge that they have a problem, or that their problem is narcissism. Sometimes, they are aware that they are arrogant and that others resent them but they don’t see it as a problem because they are convinced of their superiority. People with NPD have trouble maintaining relationships, but family members and others who do feel close to them, and whose presence they value, may be able to encourage them to seek therapy.
