Narcissistic Personality (NPD) Therapists in El Dorado Hills, CA
I specialize in helping individuals navigate the complex impacts of narcissistic abuse, ADHD, anxiety, and trauma.
The Unconscious mind is a part of the mind that triggers a collection of thoughts which inhibit our mind without us being aware of them. Although these processes exist beneath the surface of conscious awareness, they are thought to exert an effect on conscious thought processes and behavior. The unconscious phenomena include repressed feelings and desires, memories, automatic skills, subliminal perceptions, and automatic reactions. As humans, we are wired to repeat deeply learned patterns that, at a certain point, no longer serve us. Whether it’s in your work life, personal relationships, or your relationship to yourself.

Licensed clinical psychologist with over 20 years of experience helping women with anxiety, self-doubt, and relationship challenges, including emotional abuse and narcissistic dynamics.
You’re exhausted. You work hard to keep the people in your life happy, but you can’t help but feel unfulfilled, overwhelmed and unappreciated yourself. So, you try harder and give more, but it doesn’t feel like you’ll ever be enough. You keep up the façade that everything’s okay, but beneath the surface, you feel stuck in a prison of chronic guilt, worry and self-criticism. The constant swallowing of your own truth for others’ approval has left you empty. And the truth is, its lonely in there where no one sees the real you.

Did you stay together after infidelity, betrayal, an emotional affair, hidden contact, or sexual betrayal — but never really heal? On the outside, life may look like it moved on. Inside the relationship, the same questions, triggers, resentment, sexual distance, shutdown, defensiveness, or mistrust keep returning. One partner may feel, “How long will I keep paying for this?” while the other feels, “How can I trust you when the truth, impact, or accountability still feels unfinished?” You may both be exhausted from trying, arguing, avoiding, or pretending things are better than they are, while the marriage still feels fragile.

I work with individuals and couples who feel trapped in self-defeating patterns of anxiety, despair, and anger. This may be related to a traumatic experience or loss. Others may find that these disruptive patterns have always been there but are now making the choice to live life differently - one that feels more genuine and meaningful. Most feel that they are losing control of their own lives and that they are lacking balance in some very important ways. I specialize in interpersonal therapy to treat problems such as trauma, mood disorders, and chronic relationship difficulties.

The first step in any journey takes the courage to start. And you already have! You're here. I know there is still a lot of shame around being vulnerable and asking for help.

You're still stuck. The same fights keep happening. The distance keeps growing. You're starting to wonder if this is just how it's going to be, or if it's time to call it.

I specialize in the neuroscience of how people think, react, and show up in relationships. I work with individuals and couples who feel stuck in repeating patterns—overthinking, shutting down, people-pleasing, or conflict cycles they can’t seem to break.

I also work with pilots and high-performance professionals who need a space to process stress, identity, and relationships—without risking their careers or compromising their edge.

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.
