Narcissism
Inessa Freylekhman
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
My focus in this area is supporting people affected by relationships involving narcissistic patterns, manipulation, or persistent emotional invalidation. I help you explore the impact of these experiences, reconnect with your perceptions and needs, and strengthen boundaries. Together, we work toward restoring self-trust and developing healthier, more reciprocal relationships.

Narcissism
Nina Marikian
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
Being in a relationship with a narcissist can feel like walking on a tightrope. I work with clients to recognize manipulation, reclaim boundaries, and regain a sense of safety, confidence, and self-respect that has been undermined.

Narcissism
Louisa Lombard
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC, LCPC
I often support Highly Sensitive People/Empaths who are Adult Children of Narcissists (ACONs), people who have/had emotionally immature selfish parents or parents-in-law, are involved in Narcissistic family systems, or are navigating a narcissistic personality at work or somewhere else in their community. The experience of dealing with the gaslighting, raging, antagonism, selfishness, putdowns, control, volatility, loneliness, walking on eggshells and emotional pain is a lot to navigate alone. Getting support from someone experienced with narcissistic personalities can help you feel more empowered and less alone while you move through the fog of being close to someone who is narcissistic.

Narcissism
Dr. Michael Marossy
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Individuals struggling with narcissistic personality dynamics often experience significant difficulties related to self-esteem, emotional regulation, interpersonal relationships, shame, vulnerability, and sensitivity to criticism or rejection. While these patterns may appear externally as defensiveness, control, anger, or emotional distance, they are frequently connected to deeper emotional pain, insecurity, attachment wounds, or unstable self-worth.
Therapy for narcissistic personality disorder and related personality patterns requires a thoughtful, nonjudgmental, and emotionally attuned approach. I work with clients to better understand recurring interpersonal conflicts, emotional reactions, self-protective behaviors, and underlying vulnerabilities while helping them develop healthier relationships, greater emotional insight, increased self-awareness, and more stable self-esteem.
