Narcissistic Personality (NPD) Therapists in Oakville, ON
I help people navigate major life transitions and reconnect with themselves in a more authentic way. My work supports individuals who are ready to understand their patterns, reclaim their voice, and step into a new chapter of self-trust and confidence. So often, the biggest obstacle isn’t the event itself—it’s the story we tell ourselves about it. “I’m not good enough.” “Someone else is always doing better.” “Why do I have to do all the work?” These thoughts can feel true, but they often come from old experiences or unhealed patterns that keep repeating.

I also have extensive experience and training in working with clients who are experiencing emotional and narcissistic abuse, anxiety, depression and childhood trauma.
Over my 36 years of counselling I most enjoy working with clients who are committed and motivated to ‘do the work’. My expertise is in the areas of anxiety, depression, emotional abuse, Critical Incident Stress & Trauma, PTSD and Complex-PTSD. Most of my clients have priorities that compete with the time they have for self care so I focus on facilitating the achievement of your counselling goals in a patient but progressive pace so you feel better faster. Much like a family doctor I build lasting relationships with my clients who come back for support whenever needed so you don’t have to start all over again every time.

I aim to work with you collaboratively to enable individuals to solve their social/emotional concerns. Over the years I’ve supported individuals who struggle with anxiety, depression, stress management, coping skills, self harming behaviours, relationship issues and parent teen conflict. I understand stressors of life and how they may have an impact on individuals. Thus I seek to help individuals locate themselves in their daily situations, reflect and influence positive change.

You didn't plan on needing a grief and trauma therapist.
Maybe you thought you'd "gotten over" your childhood by now. Maybe your divorce was supposed to be amicable, your parent wasn't supposed to die by suicide, or that relationship wasn't supposed to leave you questioning your own reality.
Here's what we know about grief and trauma: It doesn't follow timelines. It shows up in panic attacks during grocery runs, in hypervigilance that exhausts you, in the way you minimize your own pain because "other people have it worse."

From a young age, I was always interested in the why of things. Whenever I was told that, "things could be worse", I was never satisfied and always remember thinking that there must be a better or different way of handling things. In my life, I have encountered many challenging times and tried to handle things the best I could. As a result, I decided to do my own work and in turn was inspired to help others. Today, I am fortunate enough to do the work I do and am passionate about helping others to make changes in their lives.

I work with adults and couples who are navigating challenges such as anxiety, depression, relationship stress, or past trauma. Many clients who come to therapy are feeling stuck — caught in cycles of worry, disconnection, or emotional overwhelm — and are ready to find new ways of coping and connecting. You deserve to feel calm, connected, and understood - both within yourself and your relationships. But when anxiety, stress or miscommunication start to take over, it can feel like everything is just too much. You may find yourself overthinking, feeling on edge, or drifting apart from loved ones.

It is with great honour and respect that I guide people out of the maze of confusion, emotional distress and dissatisfaction towards a life with freedom of choice, joy and a state of well-being.

To quote Albert Einstein, "We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them." I commend you for taking the first step into seeking support and guidance for yourself.

You're not feeling like yourself. Even though you put on a brave face, you question if anyone truly sees, hears, or understands you. In your most honest moments, you recognize that these feelings have been present for a while. Someone close to you— maybe a friend, family member, or even your partner— has suggested you might need some support. You've searched your symptoms online, yet you still feel uncertain about what you're experiencing. You've even attempted therapy before, but it felt like it barely scratched the surface. You're looking for something deeper, but don't know where to start. You're not alone in this experience.

Narcissistic Personality (NPD) Counsellors
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.
