Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Psychoanalyst, Psychotherapist
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.

Eve Angela Fritsch
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A.
Narcissistic abuse can leave you questioning your reality, walking on eggshells, and wondering how you lost yourself in the relationship. Whether you are trying to leave, have already left, or are still making sense of what happened, therapy can help you rebuild your confidence, trust your instincts again, set healthy boundaries, and learn to trust your own reality again.

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.
