Narcissism
Growth and Change Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
The reality is everyone has a bit of Narcissism because we are all selfish in the way we look at and see the world as individuals. Narcissistic Personality Disorder is frequently thrown around these days, often by partners in relationships to describe their experiences of the other person. Its frequently overused because in the pain of our broken communication, destructive conflicts, and relational isolation, its hard to see the spouse or partner any other way than the box I've put them in. And yet, given relationally intelligent tools many of these couples are then able to experience a radical transformation in their relationship and build true lasting intimacy with one another. That said, there is a true Narcissistic Personality Disorder, less frequent than commonly popularized, but real none the less. I've worked with these cases and its very difficult if not impossible for this type of person to take responsibility for anything they did. If you think you are dealing with someone with this disorder, don't hestitate. Call Growth and Change Counseling today at 408-461-9658.

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.
