Narcissistic Personality Disorder
Tara Thompson
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) can impact someone's life in various ways, especially concerning addictions, relationship challenges, or depression. In other words, imagine someone who constantly seeks admiration and lacks empathy for others. This behavior may strain their relationships, leading to conflicts and loneliness. Moreover, they might turn to addictive substances or behaviors to cope with feelings of inadequacy or emptiness. As a therapist specializing in these issues, I would focus on helping them understand the impact of their actions on themselves and others. We'd work on developing empathy, improving communication skills, and finding healthier coping mechanisms to foster more fulfilling relationships and manage difficult emotions.

Narcissistic Personality Disorder
Matthew Syzdek
Psychologist, PhD, LP, MBA
If you aren't reaching your goals, feel unfulfilled, or struggle to keep close relationships, there is a path forward towards a more fulfilling life. Don't gamble when choosing a therapist. You deserve a psychologist who will adapt the best science to your specific needs and goals. Many therapists themselves are burned out and can't give the best care to their clients. Dr Syzdek built a small boutique practice where he limits the number of clients he treats, so he can give his clients the time, thought, and dedication that they deserve. Dr Syzdek combines compassion with the science of behavior change to help you make the the difficult decisions in life and take action, so you can live a happier life, thrive at work, love your relationships, and have fun again. Dr Syzdek treats relationship and interpersonal issues typically using Functional Analytic Psychotherapy and/or Assertiveness Training. These approaches combine new insights with new skills so you can be more effective in your relationships and re-build damaged relationships.

Narcissistic Personality Disorder
Susan Spicer
Psychologist, PhD
I possess a wealth of expertise in effectively addressing the complex issue of narcissistic abuse. I have created and published extensive resources on this topic, including audios, videos, eBooks, and The Narcissistic Abuse Survival Tool Kit. These resources have helped thousands of individuals on their journey towards healing from the trauma of narcissistic abuse. This form of abuse often leaves individuals feeling bewildered, isolated, and trapped in a perpetual cycle of walking on eggshells. My approach is rooted in fostering a deep understanding of the covert tactics employed by narcissists, such as gaslighting, manipulation, projection, and DARVO (Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender). I guide clients in learning to establish and maintain healthy boundaries, a crucial step towards reclaiming their lives. Furthermore, I incorporate EMDR therapy to support individuals in coping with the effects of a narcissistic relationship and, when necessary, summoning the inner strength to break free from it.

Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In assisting patients dealing with narcissistic personality disorder (NPD), as well as their loved ones affected by it, I provide compassionate support and practical strategies to navigate the complexities of these relationships. Through therapy, we explore the impact of NPD on both the individual with the disorder and their loved ones, including the challenges in communication, emotional dynamics, and boundary-setting. I offer psychoeducation about NPD, helping patients and their loved ones understand the underlying traits and behaviors associated with the disorder. Additionally, we work on developing coping skills, assertiveness techniques, and self-care strategies to manage the effects of NPD on relationships and promote emotional well-being. The goal is to empower patients and their loved ones to set healthy boundaries, foster resilience, and navigate these relationships with greater understanding and compassion.
