My specialty is working with adolescents and emerging adults who are struggling with low self esteem, depression, anxiety, and situational challenges. Life is hard, and can be full of unforeseen issues. I work with clients and their families to improve communication, and create a manageable dynamic at home. Teens and adolescents need help developing healthy coping skills, and challenging negative thoughts. My job is to teach them these skills so they can utilize them in the real world. I also work with women ages 18-50 who are struggling with trauma and/or Narcissistic Abuse in either familial or romantic relationships.

I think the ideal client is someone who is motivated to change. I am a practitioner of positive psychology and believe that every person has tremendous resources and just needs to discover these gifts. I think the Psychologist must build upon assets and strengths. I think that humans can build pyramids or travel to the moon when given the right encouragement and belief.

I can see any client in Maine and NH via teletherapy but I am not credentialed with insurance companies in Maine, only NH. I help guide my clients to understand how their upbringing, worldview, culture, personality, and view of self affect how they are feeling, behaving, and thinking currently. One goal of mine is to help my clients maximize their wellbeing by better understanding themselves through the use of coping tools like mindfulness to slow and calm themselves enough to be able to assess their own thoughts and emotions in the moment so as to minimize regrets while reducing mood and behavioral symptoms.

Life brings many unexpected and sometimes very difficult challenges. Change and transition can be uncomfortable and painful, particularly when it is not what we want or envision. Through therapy one can gain insight into one's self and come to understand how certain life events impact your life. Through this process of self reflection one can explore how to better manage events outside of one's control, learn more adaptive coping skills and find strategies for dealing with distress. Therapy is a tool to help people develop and improve areas of their lives that ultimately lead to greater inner contentment.

I believe that men are faced with conflicting expectations in our society that can lead them to feel frustrated, misunderstood and isolated. They are expected to be strong yet gentle, fierce yet sensitive, protective but not overbearing. Sometimes men get stuck in one role and cannot transition to another as the situation changes. My goal is to coach you on developing new strategies for addressing these issues and to help you break destructive patterns. While I focus on men's issues, all of my experience and techniques work with people in all walks of life and lifestyles.

Quality matters when it comes to mental health. It is important to seek out and retain an expert, highly experienced practitioner at the moments when you most need help. Whether that help is a matter of life and death or whether your desire is to grow and develop into the person you wish to be, quality, expertise and experience cannot be overlooked. I am one of the only Certified CBT therapists in NH, credentialed by the Academy of Cognitive and Behavioral Therapies of which I am also a Founding Fellow and Diplomate. I have studied and worked with many luminaries in the field; Aaron Beck, founder of CBT, Dave Barlow and Bob Leahy.

Most people considering therapy are deep into the pattern Albert Einstein warned of: "...doing the same things over and over again and expecting different results." Sadly, when life isn't working it can be difficult or frightening to think of options other than the old ones which perpetuate the distress and dysfunction. Finally picking up the phone can be the beginning you need. To learn more about my practice please visit my website at: www.drerniedowns.com

I enjoy helping people improve their experience of family life. Many people have difficult relations with parents, partners or children. My training helps me understand challenges families face as children develop and marriages unfold through positive and painful surprises. Sometimes family members must weigh personal needs against the wishes of those they love. I also focus on core difficulties that interfere with school or work, including interpersonal conflict, anxiety, and uncertainty about professional choices.

How might you choose the best counselor for you? Do you already know whether age and gender are important factors? Do you most of all need a specific time slot? Do you need someone who takes your insurance (or you can afford if you have none)? Does your prospective counselor do a specific kind of therapy you heard was good? You probably are concerned that the counselor will understand you and your specific problem or issues, but that is something you'll only be able to learn when you meet them. Has this counselor worked successfully with people with my problem or my circumstances?

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.
