Narcissism
Dr. Brian Sharpless
Psychologist, Ph.D., Clinical Psychology; M.A., Philosophy
There is unfortunately a great deal of misinformation about NPD in the media and online. It is also frequently misdiagnosed for other conditions. I have experience both assessing and treating NPD. In terms of assessment, I use reliable clinical instruments (i.e., those used in clinical trials) to establish/rule out this diagnosis. For therapy, I apply several forms of contemporary psychodynamic therapies shown to be helpful in treating personality disorders (i.e., Transference-Focused Psychotherapy, Supportive-Expressive Therapy, and Mentalization-Based Treatment). I have published professional works (i.e., articles and a book) on psychodynamic therapy as well. Please note that I do not do couple's therapy and that I will not schedule appointments intended for other people (e.g., spouses, family members). All potential patients must contact me directly.

Narcissism
Jonathan Schnapp
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Narcissistic personality disorder can involve patterns around self-esteem, sensitivity to criticism, and challenges in maintaining satisfying relationships. In therapy, we focus on creating a steady, nonjudgmental space to explore these dynamics with honesty and curiosity. Over time, the work centers on developing a more stable and grounded sense of self, increasing emotional awareness, and building more reciprocal, fulfilling connections with others.

Jarrece Patrick
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, NCC, LPC
Navigating relationships with someone who has Narcissistic Personality Disorder, or healing from its impact, can be confusing, painful, and exhausting. I work with clients to understand these dynamics, set healthy boundaries, and develop strategies for emotional safety and self-empowerment. Using an empathetic, evidence-informed approach, I help clients rebuild confidence, process their experiences, and regain control over their lives, fostering resilience and personal growth.

Narcissism
Susan Spicer
Psychologist, PhD
I possess a wealth of expertise in effectively addressing the complex issue of narcissistic abuse. I have created and published extensive resources on this topic, including audios, videos, eBooks, and The Narcissistic Abuse Survival Tool Kit. These resources have helped thousands of individuals on their journey towards healing from the trauma of narcissistic abuse. This form of abuse often leaves individuals feeling bewildered, isolated, and trapped in a perpetual cycle of walking on eggshells. My approach is rooted in fostering a deep understanding of the covert tactics employed by narcissists, such as gaslighting, manipulation, projection, and DARVO (Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender). I guide clients in learning to establish and maintain healthy boundaries, a crucial step towards reclaiming their lives. Furthermore, I incorporate EMDR therapy to support individuals in coping with the effects of a narcissistic relationship and, when necessary, summoning the inner strength to break free from it.
