Narcissistic Personality (NPD) Therapists in Phoenix, AZ
I’m an EMDR therapist with a heart for people seeking freedom from narcissistic abuse.
Does your past feel like a confusing mess, leaving you wondering if you’re the problem? Have you lost your sense of self? You care deeply about the people in your life, but you feel utterly burnt out and unsure how long you can keep going like this. You’re tired of failed relationships, people-pleasing, and self-blame. You long to stop saying “I’m sorry” and start living a meaningful life —on your own terms. You’re ready to process your past, but explaining yourself to others feels daunting. How can anyone truly understand the thousand tiny wounds you’ve endured over the years—the kind that don't leave visible scars?

In-person Available! I primarily work with narcissistic abuse survivors as well as empaths and HSP's (which are typically targeted by narcissists). I also work with couples who feel they are in toxic dynamics and feel stuck. This life is hard but having someone who you can talk to is so helpful and I communicate with my clients, not stare at you and expect you to do all talking! I promise you that even when it feels like you just can't do it anymore.. you really can! I personally have experienced much of life's hardships but I'm grateful for that because it gave me the opportunity to help so many others!

Whether you’re struggling with overthinking, anxiety, a life transition, grief or the long-term effects of being raised by a narcissistic and/or alcoholic parent, I got you.
You are not only good enough, you are BETTER than good enough. I know it may not FEEL like it at times. The harsh inner critic, the inability to make (or trust yourself to make) decisions, the putting on a brave face when on the inside you just want to scream.

It’s time to treat yourself the way you treat others, with care and compassion. It’s time to find your way out of the vicious cycles that keep you stuck in overwhelm, self-doubt, overthinking, perfectionism, and people-pleasing.

I am passionate about helping people navigate and understand the complexities of psychological/ narcissistic abuse and unhealthy relational patterns; manage the pain of grief; and resolve trauma.
I believe it is imperative that we broaden our definition of "trauma." Trauma can be ANYTHING disruptive (in addition to assault, combat, death, etc.). An unhealthy relationship; a break-up; bullying; neglect; a stressful event or period of time are all traumatic. These disruptive experiences influence what we think about ourselves and our world; and they often guide our decisions and perspectives.

Within your story you will uncover the beautiful tapestry of who you are, not only surviving narcissistic abuse, instead thriving, victory in hand! Call today!.
Let's find purpose in the pain that brought you to my profile. We fight so hard to keep anything bad from happening.“If I play the game, it might (or not)work out. If I avoid the issue, it’ll just disappear," it never works, does it? We fear pain& negative consequences so much that we don’t see the blinders we put on our eyes to avoid them. By putting ourselves in the dark we create BIGGER issues. What if instead of avoiding the issue, you paused and shifted? What if you chose to embrace it, get a new perspective? What if you shifted from avoidance to openness, leaning into curiosity? Let me help you find peace & resolution.

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.
