Matthew Bishop
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Doctorate in Behavioral Health Leadership
Living with or loving someone with narcissistic traits can be confusing and painful. In therapy, I help clients make sense of these patterns, set boundaries, and protect their own sense of self.

Allen Shamon
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Narcissistic abuse can have profound effects on a survivor's mental and emotional well-being, leading to symptoms of anxiety, depression, complex trauma, and low self-esteem. I provide trauma-informed care to help survivors process their experiences, address symptoms of trauma, and develop coping strategies for managing distressing emotions and triggers.

Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Psychotherapist & Psychoanalyst
Narcissism is so deeply misunderstood in our culture. Beneath what may appear as grandiosity, detachment, or defensiveness, there is often a more vulnerable person dealing with shame, emptiness, or fear of being exposed as inadequate. Protecting ourselves comes in many forms.
In the type of therapy I practice, we approach these dynamics with curiosity rather than judgment. Psychoanalytic therapy offers a space to understand how early experiences may have led to the need for self-protection through idealization, perfectionism, or control. We work to strengthen the parts of you that feel fragile or hidden, so you can begin to feel more secure, connected, and whole, not through performance or validation, but through a deeper sense of self that feels authentic and stable.

San Diego's identity as a major military and biotech hub creates dual demand for therapists specializing in veteran trauma and PTSD on one hand, and the high-functioning anxiety and burnout of the life sciences industry on the other. The city's large active-duty population at Naval Base San Diego and Camp Pendleton means therapists with military specialty training are consistently sought after, and many practices are specifically oriented toward service members and their families. San Diego's border location and large Latino population drive demand for bilingual therapists and culturally affirming care for immigrant and mixed-status families. Scripps Health and UC San Diego Health provide institutional mental health anchors across the county.
