One area I work with a great deal is narcissistic abuse, whether it was a relationship with a parent or partner.
My approach to working with individuals of all ages is cognitive-behavioral therapy. However, because cognitive behavioral therapy does not fit for everyone, I think it is important to be flexible in order provide what works best for the individual.

My clients are adult children of narcissists, borderlines, alcoholics, workaholics, and dysfunctional families; teen and adult adoptees; and high-achieving, ambitious professionals. They struggle with anxiety, perfectionism, people-pleasing, burnout, imposter syndrome, attachment and abandonment issues, and a persistent sense of feeling stuck or dissatisfied in their lives. It’s often hard for them to ask for help and they deeply fear being a burden on others. They think of themselves as strong and independent and yet, yearn for someone to lean on. They often find it easier to take care of others than focus on themselves.

You want to feel confident, and in control of who you are, but deep down you're struggling with the pressure to have it all together. You never feel good enough. You're tired, frustrated, overthinking, and constantly second-guessing yourself. Maybe you've lived through something that left a lasting mark—early trauma, emotional neglect, or relationships that taught you to doubt your worth. You can't remember the last time things felt light. But one thing is for sure: you're ready for some relief. You're ready to feel safe and connected in your relationships. You're ready to feel fulfilled, to love yourself fully and experience hope.

I specialize in treating adults who struggle with addiction, depression, and anxiety. Working from a psychoanalytic perspective, I help people uncover unconscious patterns and gain insight on their life. Most behavioral, emotional, or cognitive struggles are tied up with each other in very complex ways which have unfolded over the course of someone's life. The work of therapy is the unraveling of these strings to reconfigure them in a more satisfying and fulfilling way.

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.
