Dr. Christine Manley
Psychologist, PhD in Clinical Psychology
I treat Narcissism as well as the survivors of narcissistic abuse. The effects of narcissism often manifest within individuals' relationships (romantic, professional, academic, etc.). Chronic anger, perfectionism, shame-proneness, rejection-sensitivity, haughtiness/snobbery, feeling consistently unappreciated and not concerning oneself with others' feelings are just a few indications that narcissism may be effecting your life. Contrary to popular belief, narcissism is treatable. If you or someone you know is coping with consequences related to narcissism/narcissistic abuse, contact me to begin treatment.

Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
I have been treating personality disorders for many years. Therefore, it's an area in which I have particular experience. I use a skills-based treatment called Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to focus on teaching my clients techniques in the areas of emotion regulation, relationships, distress tolerance, and mindfulness. Please note that I offer a modified version of this therapy that includes individual therapy only. A full program in DBT typically includes both individual therapy and group therapy which may be a more appropriate fit for you. You and I can discuss which option is the best for your needs.
