In an ideal world, everyone should have someone, they can talk to. But the world isn't ideal and talking to someone you know may be difficult, or even problematic. So I can help. There’s a Chinese proverb that I like - ‘reading ten thousand scrolls, rather walk ten thousand miles.’ When we search for answers, our first point is the internet or books but what we can’t grasp from written literature, is the life experiences of interactions and 'light bulb' moments. My journeys have covered more than ten thousand miles. I have encountered and experienced many difficulties myself and I want to help you to overcome yours and feel better.

People turn to therapy in order to address the pain rooted in the past traumas. They opt for therapy when they feel unseen and unsupported. Once their instinctive needs to be seen and heard are fulfilled, people are able to revert to the Self. They are able to identify the negative self-perceptions and coping mechanisms that were adopted to be able to survive in a non supportive environment. Through therapy, people seek to empower themselves and take charge of their lives independently. I have frequently witnessed my clients experience deep healing with a holistic psychosomatic approach that is rooted in compassion.

I welcome all survivors of violence and abuse, but especially those historically silenced or pathologised: people diagnosed with what psychiatry calls personality disorders (especially BPD), survivors of colonial violence, and those dismissed as “insane” or materialistically reduced into being owners of a "faulty" brain or genes.
My work bridges three domains: psychology, life sciences, and post-colonial criticism of abusive power structures - be it at home, at work, or in the nation, and in this sense isn't therapy, but psychological formulation towards autonomy and self-authority.

I have a particular clinical and theoretical interest in states of depersonalisation, derealisation, trauma-related dissociation, and narcissistic personality structures.
Psychodynamic psychotherapy involves helping you to identify and understand recurring themes and patterns in your relationships. Although certain ways of relating may have been conducive to your survival at one point, you may now be experiencing their cost. Psychotherapy aims to make these relational patterns conscious and thus more amenable to change.

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.
