Narcissistic Personality (NPD) Therapists in Morrisville, NC
Life can be challenging at times and wrought with frustrations, sadness or anxiety. However, with therapy, those challenges don't have to be insurmountable. I believe therapy is about guiding you toward an emotionally healthy path in order to create the life you desire. The fact that you are searching for a therapist who feels like a "good fit" is an important first step (and a very courageous one). My goal is to support you along your journey by providing a non-judgmental and respectful atmosphere, as we jointly work toward you finding a more balanced Life. I am a somatic therapist and believe that healing begins in the body.

I work with adults who are ready to stop abandoning themselves- people pleasers, burned-out caregivers, and survivors of narcissistic abuse who are beginning to understand that the exhaustion they carry has a name, a history, and a way through.
My approach is depth-oriented and trauma informed. I use Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help you understand the parts of you that learned to fawn, freeze, or disappear to survive. I use EMDR to process memories and body-held experiences still running in the background of your present life. I bring a transpersonal view, because healing is also about meaning

I was a moody little menace as a teen - therapy was the only place I didn’t roll my eyes.
It was the first time I felt truly understood, and it flipped a switch in me. Fast forward: now I’m the one creating that safe, validating space for others (minus the teen angst… usually).
Whether you’re dealing with low self-esteem, relationship chaos, big feelings, or just trying to survive a life plot twist - I got you! I use a mix of CBT, DBT, ACT, and good old-fashioned human connection. Because let’s be honest, none of that therapy jargon matters if you don’t feel like your therapist gets you.

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.
